Bastille Blended Whisky, 40%

Price: 25.00 Issue: Summer 2012 Reviewer: Dominic Roskrow Category: Blended French Whisky

Described as 'French blended hand-crafted whisky hand-made and finished in French Limousin oak,' this is a real weirdo. It's more interesting than many blends and quite likeable, but it tastes less of whisky and more like a thin Southern Comfort, with liqueur-like orange, some menthol, gentle spice, and other aromatics. Hard to believe nothing has been added.
