Midleton Irish Whiskey Academy Edition No. 2, Bourbon Cask, 2016, 46%

A Maltiply member's tasting notes and whisky impression.

88 / 100

Sweet barley sugar and treacle toffee meet a proper kick of pot-still spice, while charred American oak adds a drier edge. That push and pull sounds right up my street: welcoming sweetness, with enough spice to keep things from getting too comfortable.
