Tasting Notes

About:

52% (104 proof); Blend of stout whiskey aged 8 years in French Oak, pilsner whiskey aged 5 years in New American Oak, non-age statement rye whiskey, and single malt, aged 9 years in French Oak; prices around $185 per 750 ml (likely already sold out).
Appearance:
Dark Amber
Nose:
Loads of herbal notes off the bat, predominately dill and fennel. A bit of honey sweetness, and faint resinous hop aroma.
Palate:
A sweet arrival of caramel and peanuts, with a cedar note that becomes more prominent. The mouthfeel was thinner than anticipated. The finish takes a turn for dark roast coffee, stout, and bitter hoppy notes.
Finish:
Comments:
I enjoyed the effort, the cask strength, the subtly sleek bottle design. The nose and arrival were pleasant, the uniqueness, and complexity were there. At the end of the day, I’m firmly in the keep hops fresh in beer camp though. A boilermaker after a long day is as close as beer and whiskey need to be.
