Reviewed August 27, 2021Tasted at room temperature in a glencairn, no water added. First off, I rarely comment on color, but the deep reddish-copper color of this whiskey was a surprise and a pleasure to behold. I will also say that I have not been the biggest fan of Sons Of Liberty expressions so far. I find them mostly bearing the signs of youth. However, this special release is an entirely different presentation from them. The nose is dark fruit and wine, nutmeg and cinnamon. Very satisfying while not overly complex. In the background, there is still a little of that Sons Of Liberty youth, but it is minor and overpowered by the Sherry. The palate is a joyful experience. The whiskey it viscous, great legs and accordingly full mouth feel with hints of cherry and plum. It is a sweet whiskey and a very nice sipper. The finish lingers for a while and is quite pleasant. I get more cherry, a little sherry lingering, and (oddly) a Welch’s Grape Juice note, but I say that with the clarification that it’s a nice, enjoyable, complimentary note. This is a new high for Sons If Liberty.
