Notes

About A slice of reminiscence: Distillery 59 is one that American consumers simply do not see in bottle shops. One of the great benefits of the Society is exploring whiskies we wouldn't otherwise ever get to taste, not just in single malt form but in single cask expressions. Here, we have a decadent single cask display of citrusy cheesecake, red berries and spices!

Tasting Panel Note: As we dipped rice paper in strawberry sauce and heavy cream, we sliced into a lemon cheesecake topped with mango. The palate and nose were near one and the same, albeit with a peppery spice emerging in the palate. Water brought spice to the nose, while strawberry remained the prevailing, sugar-sweet note. The palate returned to cheesecake, crowned now with mint and hemp leaves.
