Dead Guy Whiskey Stout Cask Finished at 48% ABV) — the question is whether it delivers on its promise. I sat down with a pour to find out.
Nose
Despite some initial sweet notes on the nose, this whiskey has a complex and robust flavor profile that leans more towards savory than sweet. It has a mature flavor profile that presents a better return on the palate than it does on the nose when it comes to depth of character. Its a solid sipper offering a long finish with a lingering spiciness on the fore that deepens nicely on the back end.
