Tasting Notes
"Whiskeys influenced by multiple woods are no longer that unusual. But six woods? That's something you don't see every day. The youth of this one is apparent on the nose and in the grain-forward taste of barley, but its unique ageing process means there's still a lot going on. The whiskey is pleasantly sweet without overdoing the vanilla, leading to a tropical fruit finish. It's well worth trying and unlike much else on the market."
