Review #530 |
This is
from a refill Bourbon barrel with the cask number 200311. Only 206 bottles were
made. Sweet marshmallows and burned caramel in the smell. The alcohol is not as
noticeable as the high ABV might would suggest. Some light oak and candy as
well.
A light
alcohol kick and sweetness at first in the taste. Some floral notes as well,
like lavender. Then some oak and light wood spices. Especially the spices
lingers off in the finish and is accompanied by sweet vanilla and honey.
A fine
dram, but the floral notes is a bit misplaced in my opinion. This is just a
matter of preference, so if you enjoy the floral notes like lavender, then go
for it. Otherwise it is a classic old grain whisky, with loads of sweetness and
great oak influence. I will give this 82/100 (21/20/21/20).
