I’m completely in love with this little pistol of a whisky. Distilled on the 4th of Could 2012 and stuffed right into a contemporary first fill bourbon barrel, I truthfully don’t keep in mind if or after I’ve ever tried a single grain this age in a primary fill barrel. And I’m unhappy. I’m unhappy trigger I really like this fashion, and I notice that we would not get to play with enjoyable funky little grains like this sooner or later, at the very least not at this unbelievable value. It’s simply CRAZY how inexpensive that is. And it’s true that for a lot of drinkers who choose this up not realizing what they’re stepping into, they could get a bit smacked round. Clocking in at a cool 125.8 proof, it’s merely to tense and wild to leap in with out some data of what it’s. However, if you happen to can take a step again and recognize how fortunate we’re to have entry to this fascinating and strange whiskies at lower than $40, you’ll see why I like it a lot. I feel single grains have to have water added a bit extra slowly than malt, so take your time with that too. Right here it’s.

The shade is an unbelievably fairly – deep gold (0.8). The heady abv is clear off the bat however doesn’t get in the way in which of the beautiful, candy cereal and toasted vanilla character. On the nostril, hints of Walker’s Brief Bread, muesli, cake frosting and cacao. On the palate, it’s considerably juicy with delicate candy and spicy grains, daring oak, and twang of cinnamon on the tip. Including water actually opens this one up in an enormous method however do it slowly. Now the cacao is darkish chocolate, and the stone fruits are arising on the nostril far more. Nonetheless stunning, candy, and spicy grains, however far more expressive now with a way of wilderness – fields of grass on the sting of a humid wooden. Hints of hay and geranium comply with. On the palate the shortage of warmth provides sweetness, and the spicy end isn’t any extra. As a substitute, it’s a bucket of cereals sweetened with honey syrup. It’s not bourbon, it’s not malt – it’s not as highly effective or intense as both, however a beautiful whisky, nonetheless.

Now I’m utilizing each Diageo malt I need to attempt to recreate Johnnie Black with it. A lot enjoyable to mix at house.
