First of eight Feis Ile specials tasted tonight at the Whisky Jewbilee masterclass in New York, and my least favorite. It's a cask strength version of the 16-year-old that's overpowering when neat but slightly sweet on the finish when diluted with a few drops of water. Finish aside, I couldn't discern much difference from the regular bottling, but fans of that may enjoy this slight twist, especially if they can withstand the punch in the face it provides straight out of the bottle.
