A quick hit tasting. My neighbor had received this bottle and as a nightcap after a good meal and conversation, and several pours of whisky during dinner, we poured.
The nose is vanilla, apples, apple crumb pie, cranberry, French toast, maple syrup.
Palate is sweet, saccharine. Vanilla bean, honey, white pepper, crème brûlée, milk chocolate, cookie batter
Short and sweet finish.
As a medium priced whiskey, sweet and tasty. A liquid dessert. I found it on par and slightly better than Crown Royal. Definitely a bottle for someone with a sweet tooth. [85/100][Tasted: 10/23/22]

@PBMichiganWolverine @cascode I am pleased to see the use of “Oracle” has caught on. 😅
@PBMichiganWolverine Not exactly sure what the question is 🤔
@Scott_E I don’t think it’s the availability of corn, just guessing as well. But I’m thinking because it’s such a cold climate, they need to age their corn based whiskey longer. It’s like the inverse of the Balcones Texas or Amrut India scenario. Wild ass guessing. Wouldn’t surprise me if @cascode , our resident oracle, has the right answer
@PBMichiganWolverine makes sense. I would think the corn season is short (though you can just buy the grain nowadays). This the rye and barley traditionally generally more available. Just a wild-ass guess.
@Scott_E I had a really short weekend visit to Toronto —had a quick tour of Forty Creek Distillery. Generally I noticed they’re really good in making rye, not so much in whiskey ( malt, rye, corn ). Maybe needs to age more bc of the cold weather
