Pike Creek 10 Year Rum Barrel Finish

On the nose, this comes off smelling like it’s a glass of Cruzan dark rum to be exact. I hear tell Canadian whisky can have a percentage of another spirit in it, and this tastes for all the world like it has a full shot of that same Cruzan dark chugged into the bottle. It’s not bad. I don’t know if it’s the best use of $30, but I do enjoy it. I definitely think my girlfriend is gonna dig it on ice and I think that’s how Im gonna try it next.

Nose has some brown sugar and vanilla and maybe some fruit. Pallette is a smooth brown sugar with some oak that turns into a harsh warm burn that lingers for a bit and even makes my lips tingle. Overall this is a pretty good whisky, brown sugar flavor is nice, definitely reminds me of a Canadian whisky.

Heavy alcohol flavour, does not taste like 10 years

Terrible, nose is meh not good

Pike Creek 10 year (rum barrel finished), bottled in Canada, 42% abv made by Pernod Ricard. Aroma: rye, light rum, odd sweetness. Taste: sweet, vanilla, some oak, not really getting any rum but more of that odd canuck sweetness. It has a little of the generic/cheaper Canadian notes. Which I was not expecting for a more legitimate/pricier bottle. Very smooth nice sipper. Wooden top. Coloring possibly added. Cost: 29.99+tax (overpriced) Grade: C+/B-
