Blanton's Straight from the Barrel, Barrel No. 299, 2022, 64.4%

A Maltiply member's tasting notes and whisky impression.

87 / 100

The new charred oak cask is a useful detail, though the notes don’t pin any particular flavour on it. Caramel, dried fruit and spice carry through the palate and finish, with oak alongside them. There’s plenty happening here; the finish sounds especially persistent.
