Penderyn Portwood Single Malt, 46%
Price: ● Issue: Winter 2019 ● Reviewer: Jonny McCormick ● Category: Welsh Whisky
Subtle, well-judged port cask influence integrates well with the Penderyn spirit to produce an entrancing whisky. Substantial aromas of chocolate, dried fruits, dates, cocoa, snuff, and a prickle of spices rise from the glass. There's good weight in the mouth, with flavors of chocolate, gingersnap, dates, dried cranberry, forest honey, a supportive chorus of spices, and a heavenly finish of dark sweet fruits.
