Taconic Distillery Double Barrel Maple (Release 7), 45%
Price: ● Issue: Fall 2022 ● Reviewer: Ted Simmons ● Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey
A lively nose features spearmint, lemon zest, Red Hots, bread pudding, and orange peel. With water, notes of caramel flan and rosemary emerge. On the palate, a creamy texture conveys spiced apple slices, chocolate-covered almonds, vanilla frosting, and peppermint. There's more chocolate on the finish alongside blackberry jam and licorice. Well-balanced and approachable, with notes of mint, fruit, spice, and chocolate throughout.
