The Knot 100 Proof
Country: Ireland
Region:
Type: Irish Whiskey Liqueur
Bottler: William Grant & Sons
ABV: 50%
Score: 81 Points
This is an unusual whiskey liqueur bottled at 50% ABV, much stronger than most liqueurs, and is often mistaken for Irish Whiskey on store shelves and bar menus.
The nose is grainy with notes of roasted popcorn, allspice, plums, honey, vanilla, and hints of clove and caramel. The taste is thick, chewy, and spicy with cinnamon, lemon zest, honey, licorice, chocolate, butterscotch, and touches of clove. The finish fades quickly except for a lingering cinnamon and clove spiciness along with a touch of butterscotch. (April, 2014)
