Why Liquor Geeks recommends it

This is Clyde May's Alabama Style Whiskey, a 750 ml bottle at 42.5% ABV (85 proof). It leans fruit-forward on the nose and rich on the palate. Expect ripe peach and red delicious apple up front, with fig jam and damp fresh oak underneath. Then comes a heavy, velvety body carrying oak, leather, and tobacco. The finish stays gentle, with a touch of black pepper, warm baking spice, and a soft, cake-like sweetness. That pairing of bright fruit with darker, savory depth is what sets it apart on our shelf. The moderate proof keeps it approachable for someone still finding their way into American whiskey, while the texture gives seasoned drinkers plenty to explore. It rewards slow sipping neat, opens up nicely over ice, and earns a place in a side-by-side tasting flight. We carry it because it offers a distinctive fruit-and-leather profile you won't confuse with anything else, and it's a bottle we're happy to pour for friends.
