Old Durbar Blended Reserve Whisky

It is soft, much less sharp than many other spirits. It definetely has honeyed depths, as the bottle says. There is a smoothness to the finish, and a lovely after taste (In future I will describe more).

Carmel and ambiguous wood nose. Mild fruity, maybe cherry taste and finish. Very smooth across the tongue with a mild burn at the end.

Appearance: In this whiskey blend my friend brought back for me from his mission trip to Nepal, I look in my glass and notice a light honey color, with super thin and oily legs. Nose: As I bring the glass up to take a whiff, I get fresh notes of green apple, pear, salty brine and light peat, honey and flowers, and damp forest and hay. Taste: The palate has, as I take a sip, a creamy mouthfeel, and is pretty warm going down at first. Notes of ash, honey, red apple, cherry flavored candy, and sea brine traverse the tongue. Finish: The finish is medium long, dry and ashy. Thoughts: This whiskey was surprisingly good. It was a fun gift to receive, maybe not worth hunting down, but still good. I’m glad I got to try it! Thanks, Spencer and Old Durbar! Sláinte!
