Orphan Barrel Muckety- Muck 25 year old, 45.5%

Price: 250 Issue: Summer 2022 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Single Grain Scotch


Oak shavings, cinnamon, nutmeg, black pepper, rough-chopped cilantro, chocolate sauce, well-toasted bread crust, and baked cookies on the nose of this aged grain from Port Dundas. This is a great find, with a delicious palate of chocolate praline, black fruits, milk chocolate desserts, nippy pepper and clove, roasted nut, and toasted oak, and it takes water surprisingly well. A flavorsome grain to sip in mellow times.
