Virginia Distillery Co. Port Cask Reserve, 46.5%

Price: 45 Issue: Summer 2024 Reviewer: Shane English Category: Single Malt American Whiskey

Plummy and bold on the nose, this harmoniously brings together brusque and bready aromas with deep red fruits from the port cask. Raisins and char offer quiet support to the more assertive fruits. On the palate, it delivers fruitcake, black and white milkshake, and marzipan. The malt finishes strong with spicy coffee and rich toasted oak.
