Kinsip Maple Whisky

Very sweet with strong maple tones. Most of a dessert whiskey, good for around the holidays and to give maple flavour to riffs of OF and Manhattans

Thinking back to my beautiful visit to Prince Edward County, a highlight was the spirits tasting at Kinsip Distillery. One of the spirits I "had to try" was their maple whisky. Being a whisky aficionado, flavour infusions can be a dual edged sword. Kinsip's Maple Whisky's nose is light, and reminds me of maple candy. My sips savour like syrup with maple and oak. Finish is inobtrusive and slightly herbal. I'd think of this as a digestif post meal and believe it would play well on ice or in a "Canadian" hot toddy. Though it's pleasant, it's a bit sweet for me while in a whisky mood. 7/10.
