WHIFOR01
£57.50
The Forest Distillery's latest blend is their own blend of complex malt whiskies. Each one is at least 8 years old and they are all 100% malt whisky. They have then taken that blend and finished it in a 50 year old Oloroso cask at the distillery. This cask has previously been used to mature their blends 3 times, and as such, the sherry influence is much less in this than previous releases. The whisky is much softer and gentle in flavour. Definitely very easy to drink, with beautiful notes of toasted European Oak.
The bottles are polished black porcelain with a papercut by the artist Georgia Low glazed with real gold.

Probably the definitive expression of traditional Irish Single Pot Still whiskey. Made from a mash of malted and unmalted barley and then triple distilled in traditional copper pot stills, Pot Still whiskeys are characterised by full, complex flavours and a wonderful creamy mouthfeel.

A classic Bourbon. On the nose, caramel, oak, vanilla, and just a hint of floral notes. The palate follows with more of the same. A softer style Bourbon, this is a great gateway dram to converting someone to becoming a Bourbon drinker.

Nose is sweet vanilla, ripe fruit, and oak notes. The palate is buttery with a sweetness that I can only describe as "candied corn." The oak notes cut the sweetness, reminding you that you're drinking a Bourbon.
