Thoughts 💭: To be honest I think this was a pretty good idea, I mean I often find rum cask finishes in non-peated whiskies a little too sweet but the idea to put them with peated is brilliant. The sweet and savoury contrasting flavours really balances the whisky out, makes it complex and interesting. If you’re a pest fan then you really need to give this one a go

Sláinte!
