Review: Summer Shine Lemon and Mint Whisky
Summer Shine Lemon and Mint Whisky was introduced earlier this year. It is made at Midwest Custom Bottling in Pewaukee Wisconsin, the same place Rum Chata is created. Summer Shine starts with a corn whisky base and adds rye for added smoothness. The whiskey is then infused with natural lemon and mint flavor with no added sugar. It is then bottled at 63 proof. While it is bottled in Wisconsin no explanation is given for the Canadian spelling of whiskey. Is the whisky sourced from Canada?The aroma is corn whiskey with mint and lemon. The corn whiskey aroma gives it a real moonshine scent. The subtle corn whiskey entry is joined by mint and it has the initial flavor volume of a flavored water. At the midpoint the flavor intensifies first with mint and then lemon. The tart lemon candy finish is long with very little heat and a tough of spicy rye.
