Sober Spirits W 0.0% Whisky

Verdict
The rare zero-proof whisky that starts from actual whisky: a three-year-old Scotch, dealcoholized in Grasse and redistilled in copper with toasted oak. Toffee and cocoa where the burn used to be — the honest version of a category that usually runs on flavor compounds.
