Balvenie Caribbean Cask 14 Year

Finally got a bottle of Fire & Cane. Wanted to compare two rum finished whiskies, so I compared the Balvenie 14 Caribbean Cask with the Fire & Cane, interesting match. - On the nose, the Caribbean Cask (CC) was sweeter and mellow. The Fire & Cane (F&C) was strong, with a slight smokey influence in the background with fruits like orange... something citric. - On the palate, the CC was sweet... honey, sugary; the F&C was smoke with pears and a little sweetness, but nothing like the CC. - On the finish the CC was smooth and light; the F&C was strong, medium last, but it makes you remember that you are drinking a scotch whisky. Overall I liked them both. I will drink the CC maybe after dinner, but if I want to relax while watching an action movie, then the F&C will be the choice.

Soft vanilla tones. Great hints of rum.

One of my favorite scotches for sure. Not many scotches have distinct sweetness but this one does and it’s a nice change up.

Nose: sweetish orange, vanilla, slight wood and leather Taste: silky, balanced mild sweetness, hints of liquorice, wood, peppery. Finish: warm, smooth, not specific
