A while back I determined that the Four Roses OESQ recipe wasn’t for me. But tastes change, and I’m really liking this. Nice balance of baked banana and oak. Cheers!
Been hearing good things about this. Looking forward to giving it a go. Sláinte!
Another fine outing with Kilchoman comes to its end. Though this particular release wasn’t my fave still it brimmed with that Kilchoman quality and integrity. Cheers!
