Remus Repeal Reserve 7 (90)

This whiskey immediately hits me with a smoky element. I would classify this more as barrel char or even more of a tobacco note, not a “peat” note or anything like that. I also get a sweetness going in the direction or brown sugar and a slight floral note. This shows the complexity of this whiskey, however it leaves me wanting more in terms of depth of flavor. The finish is long and has notes of black pepper. At this price point and to be a limited release from a major distillery, I was a little disappointed. Overall, still a good whiskey.
