Ki One Batch 3 Oloroso Sherry Hogshead Casks, 46%

Price: 150 Issue: Winter 2023 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: World Whisky

Rich fruitcake notes of currants, cherry, mixed peel, walnut, baking spices, and Red Vines on the nose. There is baked orange, marmalade, plum, date, sultana, and chocolate on the palate, which keeps the peppery spices in check, adding more citrus as it dilutes. The sherry casks seem a much better fit for Ki One’s young spirit than a feisty virgin oak cask, so consider this their best effort to date.
