Nose: Champagne/sherry vinegar, grapefruit, organic Cheerios.
Palate: Mignonette vinegar. Sweet n sour. Stale stick of Juicy fruit gum. Peach gummy rings, packing tape and cardboard.
Rating: 5 / 10 – the most acceptable of the three sister casks, but I’m not looking to lick my way through a major shipping service.
Nose: Butterscotch cream frosting, oats, honestly smells like a wort, browned butter, pot de creme, banana
Palate: Hay, buttered popcorn, banana marshmallows, warming spices, cinnamon latte.on the finish something slightly unpleasant. Envelope glue and wet cardboard.
Rating: 4 (Ryan) 5 (Shane) / 10 – it’s pretty solid until the finish… then I wish it would just finish
Nose: Perfumy, packing tape, pistachios and cardamom, patchouli, animal crackers, plain meringue – those huge ass ones you get half way through before you realize, that is just way too much sugar, cereal milk
Palate: That first time you have middle eastern or central american treats that use different sugars and flavors… pistachios and cardamom indeed, reminds me of grape nuts. And cedar. Lots of cedar and sandalwood. I feel like I just made out with a hippie.
Rating: 3 (Ryan) 4 (Shane) / 10 – different, but not in a good way
Nose: Lemon pledge dusting spray. Homemade charcoal before lighting the grill. Baking clay. Limestone. Took the kids to a goat farm last week to lean about making cheese and ended up petting an albino donkey for almost an hour. Such a friendly beast. Really lowers the heart rate. He had a warm hay smell.
Palate: So well aligned with the nose. Deep lemoney mineral profile. The fabric bandaids which actually stayed on when surfing. The salty aftertaste of a good session., Sweetness, hints of vanilla and barley candy. Fennel bulb. The smoke is surprisingly gentle.
Rating: 8 / 10 – Incredibly well rounded palate. Elegant, interesting. yummy.
