| Review #152 |
This Port Charlotte is from Krügers Whiskygalerie and
is from a bourbon cask. Only 331 bottles were made. The first I notice in the
smell: PEATBOMB! I also get bacon, and if you put your nose to close, a LOT of
alcohol. Well, I made the mistake but now I don’t have to worry about my nose
hair for a while! In the end it gets the classic Port Charlotte young
sweetness.
I said a peat bomb in the smell… Well, it is a peat
bomb in the taste as well. This is young and vibrant and full of peat and
alcohol. You get some more sweetness in the finish, but the peat and extremely
high ABV makes it hard to sense the complexity.
Give it some water and a couple of minutes in the
glass. It loses a little in the smell, but it gets much more complex in the
palate. I will rate this 89/100 (23/22/22/22).
