Cask No. 42.73 Sweet, fruity & mellow

QUIET CONFIDENCE

$471.00

LAST BOTTLE IN CANADA AVAILABLE AT KEG N CORK IN EDMONTON (AND IT'S ON SALE!)

This dram exuded a quiet confidence which induced a sense of calmness, waited for the right moment with utmost patience and here we are. The aroma was that of sweet tobacco, honey and soft waxy pieces of papaya as a resinous woody leathery scent cast a spell on us. Really gentle, really complex on the palate with salted caramel, coconut oil and pineapple fudge.

We were completely captivated, like listening to a song where the lyrics are almost whispered suggesting that you might hear a secret - delicate yet incisive! A drop of water, if you wish, as we then imagined joining meditating Buddhist monks in their chanting.
