    Very sorry for your loss guys. I always wonder how most american single malts would fare if they weren't aged in new oak.

    • @whiskeyisajourney
      @whiskeyisajourney  Місяць тому

      Thank you. It has been my experience that American single malts have been good for the most part. At least the ones I have in my collection. I think this one was just too sweet for my palate. Cheers!

    I love Mary Bridget's analogy..!!!
    I' have tasted a few Bull Run releases and the only one that stood out for me was their 7 year old Madeira cask finished single malt. I suspect the only reason for that is my love for Madeira fortified wine. Cheers 🥃

    • @whiskeyisajourney
      @whiskeyisajourney  Місяць тому

      That makes sense. I think I remember tasting a sample of one of their single malts at the distillery that was finished in a maple syrup barrel. Way too sweet!

      Thanks! I wasn't quite sure how to explain how torn I was was over it's potential and wanting to give it a chance to prove it's self before giving up. That made me think of dating for some reason.😆 I was hoping people could relate so they understood what was going on in my confused head! I guess you did, so thank you!! I really wanted to like it, especially for sentimental reasons. Oh well! Maybe we will have to try the one you liked if we can het our hans on it. Cheers!

    She's BACK! Sweet!! I have to admit I love Whisky more than Bourbon. JUST ME, DON'T HATE 🤠🤠 I think I will skip this one. Thanks for the review. If you can get it where your at, I think you should try the Old Soldier Whiskey out of Tacoma WA. More specifically the 4X4 Whiskey.

    Could use this bottle as an infinity bottle. There's some symbolism in that. Maybe.

    I got the Bull Run 15 yr American SM finished in Pinot Noir($49) and I love it. The Bourbon Wrench and Whiskey Channel Dotcom did a 16 yr barrel pick 119 proof I think of it. I'm gonna get a couple I think, $47 + fees.

      If you bought that bottle from the store, it is most likely not a single malt, but what they call “American Whiskey “. I have it on my shelf, and according to their website it’s 99% corn and 1% malted barley. It is, otherwise , very tasty, and I think it gets better a few weeks/couple of months after opening.
