One of 72 items (60% of 136 releases) not presented for evaluation under new LCBO policies. This REPEAT last appeared in Vintages (**+) on May 13, 2017 at $56.95. Here is my previous note: Bright light yellow colour. Intense, somewhat peppery, spearminty, cedary, floral-wheaty nose. Very dry, medium bodied, slightly peppery, dried lemon-plum flavours with a wheaty, somewhat cedary, lingering finish. This batch has 46% alcohol with bottling lot number 11/2016 Batch 04 and American Oak on the front label. |

TASTING NOTE: Made from a combination of whiskeys made with malted and unmalted barley, this is a gentle, versatile spirit to sip or mix. The honeyed scent leads into a light, sweet flavor profile that shows coconut and vanilla, plus a bracing sprinkle of nutmeg and cinnamon heat on the drying finish. Best Buy. Rated #44 in Wine Enthusiast's Top 100 Spirits of 2017. Score - 91 (Kara Newman, Wine Enthusiast, March 1, 2017) |
