Producing WhiskyCast has given me the opportunity to taste some really amazing whiskies, and I’m pleased to share my tasting notes with you here. You can search my entire database of tasting notes from this page, and I hope you’ll find it useful.
Far North Spirits in Minnesota is best known for its Rye whiskies, but started distilling Bødalen Bourbon in 2015. This 5-year-old bottling comes from one of the distillery’s oldest barrels, and is made from a mashbill of 60% heirloom corn, 30% AC Hazlet winter rye, and 10% malted barley. The nose is aromatic with a nice balance of oak, tobacco, leather, buttered popcorn, soft spices led by a touch of nutmeg, apple cobbler, and Manuka honey. The taste also has a good complex balance of tobacco, figs, plums, baking chocolate, Manuka honey, charred oak, apple cobbler, and soft spices. The finish is long with touches of baked fruits, cocoa, and oak. Excellent! (December, 2020)
