Starward Ginger Beer Cask Finish No.7, 48%
Price: ● Issue: Fall 2023 ● Reviewer: Jonny McCormick ● Category: World Whisky
This combination of Starward’s Nova and Solera single malts finished for 1 year in ginger beer-seasoned French and American oak casks has a nose of crystallized ginger, ginger root, lemongrass, chicory root, light vanilla, marshmallow, and grapefruit peel. The ginger flavors modulate throughout the palate, with spicy ginger notes and stewed fruits initially, shredded ginger root, vanilla, citrus peel, toffee, almond, and dark chocolate. Try it in a Penicillin.
