Few Single Malt Whiskey

Few Single Malt Whiskey - 750ml Appearance: The whisky pours the color of toasted straw with a pronounced dullness throughout the glass which fades to a pallid shade of beige around the edges. Legs are present and quite speedy. Nose: That neutral woody nose reminiscent of particle board leaps out from the first sniff of this whisky. Notes of vanilla creep up to help support the burly oak profile. An air of fresh-baked buttery pastry is weaved throughout multiple inhalations, and there is a finishing note of fresh-cut grass that stimulates the palate with a green freshness. I was hoping for a bit more smoke in the nose, but the cohesive nature of the aromatic experience gives thanks for balance regardless. Palate: As soon as this golden liquid hits the tongue, a perceptible balance between viscosity and alcohol burn sets the stage for an intense experience. The ‘green’ element noticed earlier in the nose translates wonderfully in to a leafy, earthy, rind-y mouthfeel which is complimented by a caramel sweetness that also allows the slow burn of 46.5% alcohol to be spread out and tamed 100% MALTED BARLEY.
