Consistently one of the best Port-finished whiskies in the world, Portonova is finally back up at its apex bottling strength of 62.1% abv, and we could not be happier. This whisky is a crescendo in a glass. Hopefully, it is back to stay.

Producer Tasting Note
Nose: A Thick pudding of a nose; fruit and caramel have merged into one slightly over-oaked soup; burnt apple pie;
Taste: This is essentially a port pipe sandwich.... and it shows. Th spicy, jammy fruit is interwoven through any amount of caramel while the oaky saltiness gets the taste buds both salivating and puckering until you run dry;
Finish: Long, massive oak with quite evident traces of the virgin barrels now detectable. And more of a cocoa hue as it progresses. At last some muscovado sugars arrive to supplant the berry fruits;

For all of you Gemini's out there! Or, for all of us whisky lovers. No need to discriminate. The unpeated Mithuna release from Paul John is bottled at 58% ABV, and is part of the distillery's Zodiac series. Mithuna is the Indian counterpart to the Gemini zodiac sign.
Producer Description
"Unpeated. Non chill-filtered. Matured in American virgin oak casks and finished in ex-bourbon casks.
Hues of old oak and sophisticated aromas of liquorice with gentle beeswax lead to a luxuriant delivery of ulmo honey on crisp toast, and tender notes of vanilla. Chewy flavours of coffee mocha, orange peel and delicate spice float on active tannins while gentle oils enjoy gists of dark cocoa tones. The finish is gratifyingly long and complex with multi-toned sugars and delicate honeys.
Renowned for contradictive strengths, the characteristics of Gemini are epitomized by this Indian single malt as mesmerizing layers of austere, dry tannins are challenged in equal measure by resplendent sugars and mocha on delicate oils."

Finally, back at a bottling strength that suits this Indian flavour bomb! For the last couple years, we've only had access to the 46%er. That was still good whisky, of course, but this is next level. As soon as we saw it was back in the province, we had to jump.
This spirit starts its life in ex-Bourbon, before being re-racked into Sherry casks, then put back into ex-Bourbon to finish maturing. They like to refer to it as sandwich maturation. In this case...a spicy jam sandwich. Delish!
