| Review #730 |
This whisky
is called “Tap-dancer with a Tootsie Roll” and comes from a ex-Bourbon hogshead
with a 1 year finish in a custom virgin oak barrel. Only 210 bottles were made.
Oak, dusty books and melons in the smell, with hints of some vanilla in the
background.
So full of
flavours in the taste, and that really compliment the alcohol! Charred oak with
a dash of herbs. The sweet vanilla comes forward in the finish. The oak is still
here, but not as dominating as you maybe would think!
It has many similarities with Bourbon, but with
a touch of Scotch (especially the nose). Very flavourful and it seems like it
was some good casks and the spirit a great mix. However, I miss a bit of
complexity… I will give this 86/100 (21/22/22/21).
