Different. That is the term here. Can you imagine a Whisky that tastes more than less as a beer (craft beer)? Well this dram achieves that goal.
Bottled at 43%abv, burnished gold.
This one is made by maturing the whisky in Indian Pale Ale casks (a type of a bitter beer).
On the nose: hops? Foam? Carnival foam? Orange definitively, sweet, honey, cake, custard cream. a little spicy. Rare whisky. Interesting.
On the palate is very spicy, clove, but amazingly balanced. Some orange notes, tastes exactly as a craft beer. Finish is pleasant and a little spicy, leaving a mouthfull of allspice. Nice.
Overall i give this interesting dram an 80 over 100, and i do recommend you grab a bottle and give it a try, it is different from everything else. Slainte!
