Wyoming Whiskey’s National Park series of limited release bourbons has been a standout in the company’s output. Often featuring bright fruity flavors against just enough oak for 5 year old bourbons has resulted in easy-sipping and consistently enjoyable releases. Before the expected release of their fifth edition this fall, the company chose to highlight a national park outside of their home state for an exclusive release in the state of Maine. Wyoming Whiskey National Parks: Acadia Edition features artwork depicting Maine’s Acadia National Park, which is a 47,000-acre Atlantic coast recreation area primarily on Maine's Mount Desert Island. Like releases in the series before it, Wyoming Whiskey is donating to this release’s specific park to support their continued efforts to preserve Acadia’s natural resources and to enhance the national park experience for generations to come.

Like other National Parks releases before it, National Parks: Acadia Edition features pronounced fruit notes. This time out, there is a focus on orange, which is found throughout its sip. It’s a refreshing note as orange is an uncommon flavor note, and combined with its other notes of honey, pastry, cherry, and almond, it results in a thoroughly enjoyable sip. Once again, the whiskey’s 5 year age statement is perfectly dialed in, offering delicate oak notes throughout, with just enough rye spice and leather to round out the sip. The Wyoming Whiskey National Parks series isn’t on enough people’s radar, and after five releases, the series has more than proven itself. Though this release is a Maine-only release, it will be interesting to see how National Parks No.5 compares later this year.
