Rock Island Mezcal Cask Finish, 46.8%
Price: ● Issue: Fall 2022 ● Reviewer: Jonny McCormick ● Category: Blended Malt Scotch Whisky
Rock pool saltiness, orange peel, dried tropical fruits, smoky agave, dry grassy notes, and lemon curd achieve an excellent balance of aromas. This demonstrates a superior mouthfeel and texture compared to other mezcal and tequila cask-finished scotches, with an invigorating palate of lemon Jell-O, gooseberry, sharp fruitiness, hot smoke, honeydew, and spices. (300 bottles)
