Milford 20 year old, 43%

Price: 100.00 Issue: Summer 2011 Reviewer: Dominic Roskrow Category: New Zealand

This is from the stock of aged Willowbank whisky that was marketed under the Milford label before ending up as whisky from Thomson. You following this? It's sweet, with an attractive soft melon center, but sharp pepper kicks in and coats the mouth, staying forever.
