Oof cask strength indeed. Tastes like turpentine had a baby with everclear, then wrapped it in old socks and lit on fire.

It is quite tasty. Poached peaches and pears, and a slight nutty finish. A wonderful 24th dram! And so, here on Christmas Eve, we come to the end of our fellowship. 2/ #whiskyadventcalendar #merrychristmas #happyholidays

Whisky Advent Calendar day 24 (!) - Mortlach 16 year old Single Malt Scotch Whisky. This is a Speyside whisky aged in sherry casks. That explains the strong fruit aroma and flavor. 1/ #whiskyadventcalendar #merrychristmas #happyholidays

This Speyside dram is filled, and refilled, in Oloroso sherry casks. It's all fruit (natural - like plums and cherries, and other - like creamsicle) and a nice long, rich finish. We need some Tamdhu for our bar, and so do you! 2/ #whiskyadventcalendar #happychristmaseveeve #festivusfortherestofus

I imagine that a Walmart brand cherry flavored cough drop, recovered from the burned out couch cushions, would taste like this embarrassing product. I didn't even bother with capturing a picture since it would likely look like those creepy Polaroids 2/ #whiskyadventcalendar

There's a richness like toasted almonds, and a nice finish of spiced apples. It's quite a bit of flavor from a whisky only aged for about 4 years (in casks 2018, bottled 2022). Interestingly, NC'NEAN is the pronunciation of the Gaelic name of the Huntress (Neachneohain), 2/ #whiskyadventcalendar

Whisky Advent Calendar day 21 - NC'NEAN Huntress 2022 Single Malt Scotch Whisky. I think we've had this expression before but an earlier year. There was another from this distillery earlier in this calendar. This has a nice nose. Honey and toffee. 1/ #whiskyadventcalendar

This is distilled in the Newmarket area of Dublin, not too far from St Patrick's Cathedral. I'll definitely look for this the next time it comes up (me going to a bar or the liquor store - hardly ever, right?). Hooray! 5 to go! end/ #whiskyadventcalendar

Anyway, this is a tasty Irish whiskey! It's a little spicy, lots of warm spices, vanilla, and some brown sugary sweetness. They finish aging this whiskey in Caribbean rum casks, which explains the rich fruity backbone of this tasty dram. 2/ #whiskyadventcalendar

It tastes like melted play dough, mixed with Kool menthol cigarettes, and some black melted boot polish. To call this a whisky is to offend all the gods, the old and the new. This is not fit for human consumption, nor any other living thing. 3/ #whiskyadventcalendar #worstthingever
