Kentucky Owl Maighstir Edition

On the nose i get chocolate and toffee, as well as peanuts. Smooth first sip with toffee, cinnamon, oak, char, and leather. Ice offers subtleties to each of the previous mentioned notes. This is a good offering from KY Owl and one i highly recommended.

We can tell right off the bat that this release has some similarities to a blended Scotch. Perky, woody, high notes, with a hint of smoke, and a rich, thrumming bass line of malt. On the palate, there is a sweetness and a softness which comes from the corn and the wheat addition. A bit of rye spice kicks in at the tail end of the initital tasting. The body is medium-light, with an overall warming and relaxed mouthfeel. Nothing amiss here. The finish is extra long, gently ending on an oaky note. Exceptionally well blended, and the kind of whiskey that begs for just one more sip. Kentucky Owl continues to impress.
