Following my review for the standard Pendleton comes this review for Pendleton Midnight Canadian Whisky. It's mostly the same juice except a portion of the whisky was aged in brandy barrels. Let's see if it fairs any better. Nose: Like its predecessor, still too much of the sweet solvents, though not to the degree you might expect since the ABV is bumped up to 45% here. It's more fruity. Starfruit (never gotten that note in a whisk(e)y before) and musty bubblegum. Still too much alcohol burn. Palate: Light-bodied, with a slightly more classy variety of cloying, artificial sweetness. Non-descript fruitiness, vanilla, and spice. Finish: Short but once again, that familiar, unpleasant aftertaste lingers for too long. Bitter, vanilla-grape cough syrup with some green pepper. Verdict: This is another "no" from me. While slightly more tolerable than the standard issue, this is still not good and the aftertaste is really off-putting to me. 1.75 ~ Poor
