I’m all for whiskey being aged for 9 years in American Oak barrels. I think that’s great! But then, Dave Phinney (of Orin Swift and Splinter Group) decided it’d be a good idea to then further age Slaughter House in Papillon red wine barrels. And I’ve decided that Dave Phinney is a genius.
Oh so much glorious butterscotch on the nose. The burnt sugar reminds me of créme brulee, just without the creaminess. There’s a hint of vanilla in the scent as well. The biscuit notes are nice touches.
The flavors all match up with the nose, but with the added bonus of black cherry. Oh it’s glorious. It’s just a hint, but it’s fantastic.
