Flaviar Advent Calendar (2022) - The Depths of Whiskey. Whiskey #11. Product of Ireland, 40% abv.
The smell is fresh orchard fruits, green apples, pears, and bananas. You also get some vanilla and candied fruit. Really nice.
The taste is almost the reverse of the smell. The cooked fruit and vanilla hit first with some banana entering with a nice bit of clove spice. Not getting the green apples at all that were so heavy on the smell.
The finish is pretty short but it’s pleasant enough. Vanilla and cooked red fruits carry it out.
This was enjoyable. The taste didn’t deliver on the smell but that happens sometimes. This isn’t something I would go looking for but if someone gifted me a bottle, I’d happily drink it.
Overall Grade: C (Average)
