Pendleton Midnight Canadian Whisky

Awful! I've NEVER found a whiskey/whisky that I could not tolerate, until now. For my palate, I don't understand how the Distiller Staff rated this an 81. More like 61. I've often said, "...if you don't like it,mix it with a cola. It's bad even with Coke. 1oz of this stuff with 5 oz o food Coke and a lot of ice was the only way that I could get it down. I gave serious thought about pouring it out.

Caramel, fruit

Not as smooth as the original. However, it does have a more spicy hot tone to it which goes well with red meat or rice/chicken. Worth the $30-40 price.

Burnt maple pancakes

Pendleton Midnight, Canadian Whisky bottled in Oregon. 45% abv. No age listed. Minimum: 3 years, a portion is finished in brandy barrels. Aroma: minor sweet notes, leather. Taste: plenty of brandy notes, over time this is lost and more oak notes come through. It is very one note from my experience but it is a decent offering from Pendleton, definitely deserves a revisit. Cost: 28.99+tax for a 750 ml bottle. Grade: B-/B
