St. George Spirits 40th Anniversary Edition (Lot 22), 48%

Price: 500 Issue: Summer 2023 Reviewer: Julia Higgins Category: Single Malt American Whiskey

The nose, fruity and inviting, is bursting with sliced ripe mango, strawberries and cream, and cinnamon stick. Stay with it, and you’re rewarded with some apple crisp, too. It’s wonderfully creamy on the palate, which overflows with baking spice, rich milk chocolate, blueberries, toasted marshmallow, and vanilla latte. The finish is a bit greener, coaxing out black tea with lemon and a hint of licorice.
