Nose: The dram starts with warm and gooey buttered green apples with cinnamon. It is reminiscent of a fino or Oloroso sherry. The nose is also nutty with honey, and the Cognac has definitely left an imprint on the whisky. A little burnt orange peel comes through near the end.
Palate: I can taste the Cognac, which gives off a sweet and nutty profile. Honeycomb and almond, or candied hazelnut, makes the whisky reminiscent of Disaronno. In the middle, there is a bit of black pepper. The finish is soapy with jasmine and a skosh of baby powder. Fresh garden mint pops out on the aftertaste.
About Milk & Honey
Israel’s first whisky distillery – M&H.
From the beginning, the M&H Distillery was founded with a commitment to the highest international standards of quality, and respect for the centuries-old traditions of whisky making. For that reason, the world-renowned Dr. Jim Swan, a leading expert in hot-climate maturation and new world whisky, was brought on- board as our main consultant and first master distiller.
We pursue perfection in every aspect, from our custom-made traditional copper pot stills to quality control throughout the process. And of course, we built an outstanding team of enthusiastic people who make everything possible.
Today the award-winning M&H whiskies are available in over 40 countries worldwide, telling our bold story with unrelenting innovation in every bottle.
