Tastes

Color: Flat Lager Nose: Dusty Rickhouse, Malt,Sherry, Hint of Cinnamon Palate: Juicy fruit, baking spice on the back, figs, Sherry Finish: Medium with oak tannins and Sherry intermingled Good Sherry Scotch. It lacks complexity but is good at what it makes itself out to be.

Sherry BOMB!! Sweet, delicious Sherry from nose, to palate to finish. The oak comes in halfway with warming baking spices. Finish is long with cinnamon coffee cake, orange, and dark fruit. Wonderful! Eye: Dark teak wood Nose: Sherry, oak, baking spices, some citrus. Palate: Sherry, Sherry, Malt, Cinnamon Finish: Long Sherry with more baking spices, cinnamon, nutmeg, with oak.

I really like this pot still Welsh Whisky. I bought mine in Hawaii so it’s at the U.S. permitted 43% ABV. The Madeira cask finishing smoothly immerses this malty, fruity, and spicy oaked whisky into a medium sweet and dry finish. This is my first foray into Welsh Whisky and it has me wanting to delve deeper into this mythical land of King Arthur and dragons.

Delicious. Eye: Dark Earl Grey Tea; Nose: Vanilla, Candy Corn, Dusty Corn, Citrus; Palate: Sweet sugar and cinnamon toast, with vanilla drizzle, With an instant Kentucky hug. It does not hide the proof. It just makes you think the sweet makes the heat. Finish medium to long with vanilla, sweet oak, and Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Definitely a wheated bourbon worth having.

Color: Apple Juice Gold Nose: Lemongrass, honey hay and campfire smoke Palate: 1st sip- Tongue coating, mild sweetness with smoke meat on back end. 2nd sip- Smooth Oak, cinnamon, vanilla citrus. 3rd sip- Well rounded, sweet oak, with pepper and a whiff of old bandaid Finish: Short-Medium with lingering peat smoke, Redhots cinnamon, and vanilla. Balance: Such a smooth, well-rounded, Islas. Drinks a lot lower than the 96 proof indicated.

Sweet vanilla, caramel chew in the front. Spicy and savory cinnamon and oak in the back. Much sweeter than expected for a 70%rye mash bill, but it is so well rounded with that spicy rye/oak in the end and the finish is medium to long. Hence the high mark for this charcoal filtered single barrel work of rye art.

Just delicious! Vanilla, banana fosters, cinnamon, sweet honey and a finish that lasts for minutes. An everyday sipper that’s perfect neat.

Dark fruit, sweet vanilla cream, oak spice at the tail. Finish was medium and well balanced.

The nose is complex. Oak, with smoke, iodine, and vanilla at the edges. The taste is surprising considering the nose. Butter, honey, sherry, and oak spice. Amazing mouth feel, like blanched Finish is medium. Spice lingers and satisfies. A fine 12 y.o..

The best nose on a bourbon I’ve ever experienced. Vanilla, caramel, oak, and honey, with some rye spice in the middle that livens you this sweet spirit. The finish is warm, long, and provides that great Kentucky hug you only find in the best of Bourbons! Being a single barrel, understand that experiences may vary. My bottle was amazing! I hope yours is too!
