Description
Curating fine whiskey sounds too fancy for our taste. Scouting for great whiskey – now that sounds fun. That’s why we’re always on the lookout for whiskey to share no matter where it’s made. Because when we find something worthy (in Indiana for example), we bring it home to the mountains of West Virginia where we blend and bottle it alongside the whiskey we make ourselves. And in this case, we called this 99 proof bourbon Old Scout.
Smooth Ambler Bourbon
Who is crazy enough to start a whiskey company from scratch, in the hills of West Virginia, in a world filled with hundred-year-old Kentucky distilleries? Folks with a fiercely independent spirit, that’s who.
At Smooth Ambler, tradition isn’t a recipe we follow. Our company is literal proof of solid Appalachian know-how. That’s when the hard working, creative, and resourceful folks of West Virginia come together to make something beautiful (and damn good) that no one else thought possible.
To embrace the best of everything around us – the land, the people, and the resources – to create a business that would make a difference by providing opportunities for the people in our community.
And the way we do it is simple, we do what we think is right, everyday. We don’t look to see what our competitors are doing, we don’t look at the past, we do it by being honest, embracing diversity, and creating relationships built on trust.
It’s not complicated, it’s the only way we know how to do it.
So yeah, we’re not from Kentucky, but if you couldn’t already tell, we like it that way. Because it turns out you can make bourbon in West Virginia, too. And you don’t need a family name or recipe to make that award winning whiskey, you just need a fiercely independent spirit. – JL
