BEARFACE 7 Year Triple Oak

Dark fruit, winey and vanilla on the nose. Palate delivers what you would expect from the nose. Very nice.

Right amount of sweet and spice. Caramel vanilla.

Nice rye, smooth

This whisky left me pleasantly surprised! I recommend leaving your pour to sit for about 15 minutes before nosing and tasting. The more time given, the more rewarding. Each unique characteristic from the three barrels used during the aging process will reveal itself - corn from the ex-bourbon barrel (heavily influenced by the grain of choice as well), tannins from the ex-wine barrel, and spices from the virgin Hungarian Oak. This is great value for a unique, dynamic experience - a major step forward for Canadian whisky! NOSE: Sweet corn, oak, barley, caramel, caramelized apples, vanilla PALATE: Sweet corn, caramel, tannins, dry red wine, black peppercorn FINISH: Tannins, dry red wine, ground black pepper, oak Rating: 84/100 Grade: B Good - not a "must", but a nice-to-have.
