Balcones 4 Year 64.15% for Single Cask Nation

Nose: Exotic woods, sandlewood, potpourri, wintergreen, with water this nose comes to life: vietnamese cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, rose hip, camphor

Palate: Rye toast with marmite spread and an espresso shot. Chocolate covered espresso beans, Carrob, leather… I would totally add this to a mole sauce… with water it explodes with vanilla, and the cinamon… a mexican hot chocolate.

Rating: 7 as is, a 9 with water / 10 – a hands down amazing pour, but I could only handle one bottle of this. But with water, holy shit it’s even better.

Glenallachie 4 Year Future Edition 60.2%

Nose: Heather, campfire, honey, spearmint, milk chocolate after notes

Palate: Ashy, dried apricots, lime zest, tiny eucalyptus note, incredibly well balanced.

Rating: 5 (Ryan) 6 (Shane) / 10 – this is seriously akin to a clean lochindaal and it is right up my alley. It just a hint too eucalyptus for me to want to buy one but it’s so damn close.
