Tastes

More floral than vanilla on the nose at the beginning, but you do get a hint of American wood already in the background. Once you take a dip sweet vanilla quickly disappeared and comes some dried fruit, I was expecting some raisin but I cannot find it. And yet again it was quickly over shadow by spicy and almost but not quite burn wood taste which lingers to the end. Definitely not a boring whisky but it won't be my everyday as I personally don't like way too much bitterness of that wood. I don't mind the dry tea on the finish but not that bitterness.

The expert tasting notes are right on point. I found the American oak wood bitterness are more quite prominent. I was looking for sherry notes since it's double cask but they are quite far away in the background. My guess is they only sit in the sherry cask for about less than 6 month, what a shame.

Sugary vanilla bourbon notes on the nose. A little bit of lemon zest flying in and out through your nose just to tell you I am here. All the lovely notes above goes in and you actually would expect the same thing as you take a sip. However, there is a strong lignins, tannins and some spices come into play which eventually over power the whole thing. But to be honest it is not a bad thing as it's not boring. For its price I would say this can be one of my daily cheap drinks including The famous grouse and monkey shoulder..etc

Light golden ruby color liquid with pretty floral notes on the nose. If Kavalan's Solist Port cask is on the scale of 10 out of 10 in terms of full body and complicity then this one is about 4.5 out of 10. Glen Moray's Port is about 2.5 out of 10. Glen Moray's Port is very light and gentle it still gives you what you would expected from a Port cask. Glenmorangie takes up a notch here, bit more spicy notes then Glen Moray but equally gentle.

Vanilla, honey and sugary sweet candy with a gentle sniff but you can also get the spices, lignins, tannins and a bit of like a dry jasmine or black tea. Very smooth flowing of sugary goodness into your palate and those extra bit of wood interaction against the new charred American Oak still remind at the bottom of the golden liquid so it's not overpowering the sugary bits. After you devour the liquid the American Oak attributes started to show up and you also get stuff like leather. Its a medium finish to short finish that you still get your sugary icing on top. This is a sweet bourbon that you and your friends can enjoy without whisky been the topic.

A light sniff on the nose generate a wonderful combination of sugary and dry fruits. Citrus, toffee and species running on the side. You can also tell that the sherry notes are slightly deeper close to Dalmore 12's sherry notes but not quite there yet. While the golden liquid flowing down into your month, you immediately notice lignins and tannins from most likely an American Oak started to explode in your month. At the same time you can also taste slight sourness from the other wine cask and it's not too much so it makes it interesting for me. A medium to long finish with some spices, lignins and tannins. Like a dry black tea that bitterness with only a tiny drop of honey. Overall, a good whisky with enough complicity. But personally I just wish the finish was better.

A gentle sniff on the nose, you get this sugary bourbon notes on top but also at the same time, you get this cloudy, spicy, lignins and tannins from the oak at the bottom ready to make a move to the top any seconds. After you take a sip or two then spicy and lignins from the oak took over what you get initially of bourbon sugary notes. What you left with in the end is a short to medium finish of dry, spicy and a bit bitterness like black tea almost.

Sugary Bourbon notes surrounding deep sherry notes with lemon zest flying in and out. Wonderful balance on the nose Smooth light vanilla, sugary goes in along with well balanced dry fruit, raisin and oak bitterness. Very well balanced wiskey combining ex bourbon and ex sherry unlike others.

You get all the ex-bourbon flavour profile straight on the nose right in the middle so that's all the sugary, candy, toffee and vanilla. Very gentle wave of all the sugary goodness goes in while you feel green apple or maybe even a drop of lemon in the background. You will get the oak bitterness almost like a dry black tea just subtle not too much in the end. Overall it's a sugary goodness whiskey so you can enjoy with your friends with our thinking too much or needed to examined each individual profiles just have a good time.

Very fresh friendly light green apple, peach, sugary notes right in your face. Sherry notes are well hidden in the background where you know it's there but it's not there. Light, clean sugary notes deliver to you gently as you sip then suddenly orange, lemon zest zooming across your palate and you left with a dry clean very slight bitterness that lingers in your tongue. Because this is triple distilled hence why you get this very clean and light feeling throughout your course. Very good example and recommendations of Irish triple distilled whisky.
