Whisky Trail 50.5% 70cl

THY Whisky Trail

Official Tasting Notes
Expect a smooth, rounded texture with inviting notes of malt, rye bread, nuts, and oranges, making this a truly delicious dram. This specific whisky’s mash bill is led by Danish rye (whose spiciness is more gentle than the sometimes harsh, dry spice of American rye, and also carries the aroma of freshly baked rye bread). That’s at 60%, then there’s 30% spring barley (which adds stone fruit, malt and citrus notes ) and 10% spelt. The last ingredient produces sweet and nutty notes that really complement the spiciness of rye. Anticipate aromas of warm spices and pepper on the nose, with sweet honey and banana notes. On the palate, I pick up unusual highlights above the core of rye bread – eucalyptus, burnt orange, rosemary and thyme (it’s almost a song!) Then it draws to a close with aniseed and ginger.
