The Whiskey Wash 90
Appearance: Rich amber with moderate legs.
Nose: Dried currant and cherry, no doubt imparted by the port barrel finish, are immediately apparent. Warm allspice and nutmeg follow, as well as honey and a hint of smokiness. The nose is sweet overall.
Palate: In contrast with the sweet nose, this whiskey is quite hot on the palate, heavy with spicy cinnamon and rye. The dark fruit notes from the nose make a showing after a moment, against a mildly oaky backdrop.
Finish: Warm, with oak coming through more clearly, along with rye and berries. Some bitterness is present. Pure port remains after a long finish.
Overall, this is a satisfyingly complex, well-balanced whiskey, the berry notes from the port barrels smoothing out the heat of the rye.
