Forty Creek Founder’s Reserve Lot 104

John Hall’s tenth annual release blends 4 to 9 year old single grain barley corn and rye whiskies from a mix of barrels. Sweet and sour fruits prunes and grassy green grapes all inside a barrel warehouse yield a complex nose. Pears violets barley sugar vanilla fudge and hot pepper fade slowly into barrel tones and gentle bitter pith. A slightly slippery palate grows hot and spicy in the middle. Not as lush as past releases but equally as complex. $75 CAD
