Whiskey Wednesday
🕑 Added 2021-02-04 03:22:40 +0000 UTCHappy Whiskey Wednesday Everyone! Most of this month's Whiskey Wednesdays will have a Winter theme, as I am looking forward to spending time in the snow. Today's pick is The Whistler ~Distillers Select~ Double Oaked Small Batch Whiskey. I chose this one because my original plan for my annual ski trip this year was to go to Whistler, Canada. I figure this is as close as I'm going to get to "Whistler" this season ๐.
Today, I'm also showing off my new Whiskey cabinet in the condo that I entertain in. This has been a long time coming and I'm so excited that I finally found the piece that was perfect for the space and exacty what I was looking for. Several of my whiskeys are still at home, but I will bring more over to display soon.
The Whistler Double Oaked is one of three releases in the Trilogy Series all crafted by Michael Walsh, master distiller and master blender for Boann Distillery, which owns the brand located in Ireland's Ancient East Boyne Valley. It is a blend made from triple-distilled single grain and single malt whiskeys which aged in ex-bourbon barrels for 3 years. The whiskeys were married and aged further in oloroso sherry.
I found it to be a smooth and warm blend, but not outstanding. There was nothing noticeable about it, but at it's price point, I wouldn't expect much more. If I had a choice, I'd probably go with a Teeling Small Batch or Jameson Caskmates Stout instead.
Cheers to a wonderful evening! ๐ฅ
Notes from Flaviar:
Nose :The aroma is lively with warm caramel and vanilla over notes of citrus zest and roasted pecans.
Taste: The palate begins with vanilla creams, opening to toasted oak, fig, and lemon curd.
Finish: The finish is medium to long with oak tannins and a dash of honey.

Thanks again for sharing Jordan and I look forward to being entertained by you and your whisky when the right time permits! ๐. As a proud Canadian you cannot beat the skiing in Whistler. Golf in lake Louise not bad but the jasper even better!!

Thank you kindly. I will give it a go.

I was going to refer you to my WW for it and I realized I have not done one for Red Breast 12! I thought for sure I have talked about it. Too many whiskeys, never enough time ๐. It's very smooth and a pot still, which is unique to Irish Whiskey. It's a favorite !
Jordan Ashley
I'm sorry for your bad experience, but I can kind of understand why. Wild Turkey is quite strong! My limited experience is with Irish Whiskey, so in that world, I would highly recommend Red Breast 12 ๐ฅ.

I had to look twice for a liquor cabinet as I was thoroughly mesmerized by your long, luscious legs :p On a somewhat more serious note I have to confess that I've never acquired a taste for whisky. Vodka, gin, tequila...I can drink those without a problem, but I've had an issue with whiskey-type drinks since a bad experience with Wild Turkey in college. So, if one wanted to test the whiskey waters...what brand would you recommend for a newbie and why? Hopefully something smooth and refined, much like you dear Jordan:) Have a wonderful day.

Canโt wait to see you and the whiskey cabinet looking forward to adding to your collection

So the legs are far more enticing than the whiskey - as always!
