Pike Creek 21 Year Oloroso Cask Finish

The master blender responsible for this whisky describes it as dessert in a bottle and one of his top 6 whiskies he’s blended. The nose is sweet and caramel with a hint of sherry. This isn’t the whisky’s strength though. The palette is incredibly smooth and all 21 years show up. Beautiful, sweet and a mix of delicate corn and sherry. On the finish there is spice and hints of European wood. This whisky is super sessionable. A great drinking whisky at the ideal proof. About 4400 bottles in the limited run. My favourite Canadian and one of my favourite whiskies period. To be safe I bought two more bottles for backups. Highly recommended.

Light copper colour. Nose smooth spices and floral. Mouth: caramel, marzipan, cedar, tobacco and smoke and earthyness at the end.

Old leather library books meets wine gummies on the nose followed by a smooth and very rich palate remnant of rum raisin ice cream. The finish is tannic in nature and not overly long but certainly satisfying.
