overall

The standard Woodinville Bourbon already sports a sweet fruity flavor profile, so the addition of port cask finishing nicely complements it. In fact it helps introduce a darker fruit element to the whiskey that adds a lot of dimension to the sip. Unfortunately the standard Woodinville finish was already dry and the additional finishing time only added to its dry aftertaste.

The sample used for this review was provided to us at no cost courtesy its respective company. We thank them for allowing us to review it with no strings attached.
