McCarthy's 6 year old (Batch MC6-21-01), 50%

Price: 100 Issue: Summer 2022 Reviewer: David Savona Category: Single Malt American Whiskey


With a smoky nose reminiscent of a campfire, this velvety whiskey opens up in the glass andpresents like a sumptuous barbecue, complete with charcoal smoke and long-cooked meats.It's extremely flavorful, a 6 year old Oregon single malt from a distiller whose main releaseis a 3 year old. It is lively and fun, chewy, spicy, and smoky with a touch of mint; water brings insome sweetness that only makes it better.
