REVIEW: MOUNT GAY MASTER BLENR SELECTN – THE PORT CASK EXPRSN
Today’s review, gettg back to the topic of this post, is of Mount Gay’s latt stallment the Master Blenr Collectn, the Port Cask exprsn.
MOUNT GAY: THE PORT CASK EXPRSN
The last release, the Pot Still exprsn, is one of my all time favoure ms, so to say I’ve got high hop would be an Master Blenr beg referred to is Tdi-Ann Branker, who took over om her precsor, Allen Smh after a 3 year apprentichip at Mount Gay after jog as a qualy assurance manager 2014.
There’s dry oak and gger (characteristilly Mount Gay to me) wh dark cholate, movg to cherry, dried sultanas, orange zt and some h apple for me.
Not: This is a really good release om Mount Gay and, whilst ’s not as eye-openg as their last the Master Blenr llectn (for me), that’s not to say isn’t worth your time, particularly if your m preference ns to the ls ‘uy’ end of the spectm.
