Reviewed March 2017Made with a range of 15- to 22-year-old whiskies, this big, flavorful bottling will remind some of bourbon. Look for a rich amber color and caramel scent, and a robust palate with tons of vanilla, peach and a warming cocoa and espresso-tinged finish. Add a splash of water to balance out the high proof. Note: Each label is marked with the number of the tree (sustainably grown and harvested) from which the barrel was made, making this an ideal gift for an environmentally minded whiskey lover. (KN)

Virgin Irish oak-finished Midleton single pot still whiskeys aged from 15 to 22 years take pot still into exciting new territory. The native pot still spiciness is enveloped by chocolate-covered honeycomb, toasty oak, spotty bananas, and a barista’s coffee scoop, though a dash of water picks out lemongrass and rubbed mint. A silky smooth mouthfeel of succulent fruits is shaken down with cocoa powder. Black currant squares up as heavy pot incarnate. Clove-spiked stewed apple weighs into a lengthy finish. (JM)
