Natterjack The Mistake, 46%

Price: 60 Issue: Winter 2024 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Blended Irish Whiskey

This heavily oaked version of Natterjack has sweet, rich aromas of heather honey, beeswax candles, vanilla, graham cracker, seasoned oak, and toasted coconut. Silky textured on the palate, with honey, vanilla, Creamsicle, Jaffa orange, toasted oak, and vanilla pod, becoming increasingly dry with gingersnap and licorice. Resinous oak, caramel, aniseed balls, and ginger on the finish. It makes a great introduction to Irish blends for bourbon diehards.
