Cask and Still Magazine | 75 Bourbon
ELIJAH CRAIG 12 YEAR OLD
35 47
A truly complete small batch premium bourbon. A benchmark for many, this offers outstanding value for money.
NOSE: So much going on here – mainly fudge, plum, sweet molasses and honey.
PALATE: Full and smooth, richly textured, with dark chocolate, sweet oak and dried fruit.
FINISH: Wonderfully long, with lingering oak toastiness.
JOHN E. FITZGERALD LARCENY BOURBON
45 46
An easy-sipping, wheated bourbon with healthy doses of cinnamon and wood spice.
NOSE: Honeycomb and vanilla are the overriding characteristics here, with light liquorice and delicate spice.
PALATE: Salivating. Rich mouthfeel, with buttery caramel and honeyed notes giving way to cinnamon and oak.
FINISH: Gently sweet and as long as you like.
MICHTER’S UNBLENDED AMERICAN WHISKEY
55 41.7
This incredible whiskey is defined as whiskey (not bourbon) due to the use of bourbon-soaked oak casks.
NOSE: Complex, with candied sweetness, butterscotch and vanilla, subtle fruitiness and cherry notes.
PALATE: Lovely soft mouthfeel with the fruitiness shining through, with hints of caramel, toffee, dried fruit and sweet oak.
FINISH: Ripe and rounded, with a tickle of spice and ripe fruit.
