Bushmills 16 year old Three Woods 40%
Tasting Note
Bourbon/ Oloroso, finished in Port
Re-Tasted: Dec 2013
A gently smoked and very winey nose with earthy red fruit, pomegranate and a touch of perfumed cherry. Slightly herbal with a touch of menthol, toffee. Extremely complex with what appears to be some sherried, rich fruit cake later.
Soft and silky on the palate, opening with a lightly syrup coated red fruit, redcurrant jelly, damson and plums. It evolves beautifully as some crisp barley and vanilla appear on the middle along with some dried fruit and edgy spices. Long and winey with a lovely, almost tart citrus note freshening the finish along with lingering menthol and sweet spice notes.
