We skipped bourbon for months so now it is time to finally return

Between @jimbeamofficial top-of-the-line whiskies like the Booker’s and JB’s entry-level whiskies like the famous white label has been quite a gap for a while. A few years ago, this gap was filled by the JB Single Barrel series, which I am sure took some clues from another American whiskey giant...
_
Indeed, while not nearly on the level of a Booker’s the Single Barrel comes with enough quality and power to please experienced whisky fans – those who cannot enjoy the white or black label standard anymore.
_
In fact, it might be an elevated white label: smooth and inoffensive with just enough power to push the aromas. It is a straightforward bourbon with lots of caramel, vanilla, mild oak spices plus a hint of burned wood. There is not much to dislike, even if complexity is certainly missing.

The start of Friday’s 4x4 tasting

_
Last Friday we enjoyed a wonderful tasting, organized by @whisky_wolle and supported by @bottillery. The idea was to taste four whiskies and the drinks whose casks were used to finish the whiskies. For example, we tasted this @aberfeldy 16 and the corresponding Madeira.
_
That was actually our start into the tasting and it was a good one. While the Aberfeldy lacks a bit of power owing to the low ABV, its gentle complexity made for a great introduction.
_
Next in line was a 24yo @theglenlivet bottled by @cadenheads_berlin, featuring a full maturation in Claret red wine casks. A 13yo @theglenallachie_ followed, again fully matured in a Oloroso cask, and the grand finale was the 10yo Longrow @springbank1828 , finished in South African Malbec casks.
_
Since I am not much of a wine drinker, much less a fortified wine drinker, I found the experience fascinating. Also, the impression a whisky made changed quite a bit after tasting the wines. I would like to thank Wolfgang and Kai from Bottillery for this evening very much.

Sometimes you just want an easy sipper for a relaxed evening after work, and that @nikkawhiskyeu Coffey Grain is near perfect for that.
_
Primarily distilled from corn, using Coffey stills, the resulting whiskey is light and floral, plus somewhat fruity but definitely sweet. The slightly higher than usual (for standard whiskies) ABV of 45% also works to push those aromas.
_
Not much to say here... enjoy!

Two Gryphons in the Shadowy Wasteland [Photo by @k

The Gryphon Pure Rye Whisky has the honour of being our first rye whisky this year. Made by the @rittmeister_destille in the city of Rostock, northeast Germany, it is actually the distillery’s only whisky so far. Usually they focus on fruit brandy – a very typical thing to do for German distilleries – but it quite telling that their first venture into whisky was made with rye.
_
The mash bill is rather curious: 75% malted rye and 25% rye grist... we are not entirely sure how that works, though. Anyway the whisky was matured in virgin oak and finished in wine casks. That, by contrast, is pretty straight forward and should yield good results with the rye distillate.
_
We have not yet opened it, but that will be done soon. Thus, the Gryphon will be the start of our first in-depth review of 2022.
