Суммаризация отзывов
Отзывы о West Cork Port Cask Finished расходятся: часть описывает лёгкий, сладкий и фруктовый профиль с ванилью и красными ягодами, часть — резкий, молодой и спиртуозный характер с неприятными нотами. Портовая выдержка, по мнению ряда отзывов, проявляется слабо.
развернуть подробно
В нескольких отзывах нос описывается как лёгкий и приятный, с ванилью, лесными ягодами, красными фруктами, черникой, зелёным яблоком, а также специями и оттенками шоколада. Во вкусе упоминаются солодовость, сладость, ваниль, корица, специи, цитрусовые, ореховая нуга и шоколад; финиш описывается как средний, сладкий, с перцем, имбирём, дубом и лёгкой горечью. Отдельно отмечается, что виски очень сладкий и что он напоминает Glen Moray Port Cask finish.
Вместе с тем другие отзывы указывают на резкий и молодой характер: спиртуозность, дрожжевые и «клеевые» ноты, плесневелые оттенки, неприятный насыщенный запах, похожий на анис, а также общую сдержанность аромата. По поводу портовой бочки звучат сомнения: в одном отзыве говорится, что она проявляется в основном лишь розовым оттенком цвета, в другом — что цвет очень бледный для портовой выдержки. Часть отзывов отмечает лучшую интеграцию дуба по сравнению с другими релизами линейки, но при этом общую мягкость и одновременно спиртуозность.
Light, red fruit aromas, a little too much alcohol, otherwise not much comes out of the glass apart from the same dusty musty notes that the other bottlings in this series also have. But overall very reserved. In terms of taste, however, it convinces in comparison to its brothers with a better integrated oak note and subtle port notes. Overall, however, unfortunately still too mild and at the same time too alcoholic. Rating: 3+
Bright, straw color. It's not too oily.

| Нос | 82 | Lots of forest fruit. Blueberries and blueberries. A few sour notes break through. Blackberries. Vanilla underneath. Yeast dough. |
| Вкус | 78 | Caramel. Some forest fruits. Lots of spices. Pretty spicy. Hot pepper. Some oak in the background. Also sweet cream underneath. |
| Финиш | 80 | Some spices. Spice. Sweet cream. Lots of caramel. A trace of forest fruit. Medium-length finish. For the second sip, more forest fruits. Cocoa and dark chocolate also came out a bit. |
ABOUT! I see a slight reddish tint in the glass! The main profile for 95% consists of the same from this line. The POGUES. And this is very depressing. *( N:19 T:17 F:16 B:19
Great barrels!
The aroma spoils a very unpleasant and rich smell, somewhat similar to anise. It's also present in the taste. Sorry for the money spent.

Rectilinear rough young malt, sweet and sour berry. About the additional aging in port, it is mainly a pink tint in the color of whiskey and nothing else.
Not as terrible as the others. The oak is more delicious, more pronounced, and more aromatic than in the Virgin Oak. Not a great wine either. I wouldn't turn down a gift glass of this one. But it's not something to enjoy, relax with, or explore.

| Нос | 72 | Not as bad as the others. I can't quite decipher the main aroma. It's glue again, bright, fresh ester notes, reminiscent of rum, coumarins, woodruff/freshly mown grass, crisp oak, rum raisin. A bit moldy. Young, immature, alcoholic, but a much better teamwork than a rowdy confrontation. Still not convincing. |
| Вкус | 76 | 1. sweet, spicy, alcoholic, a bit of oak 2. spicy oak, cocoa, vanilla, sharp alcohol, indistinct fruitiness. 3. Oak, cocoa, coumarin, sharp alcohol |
| Финиш | 77 | Oak remains, even pleasantly, cocoa notes, brief hints of milk chocolate, but all relatively weak. |

Very sweet
Dealer information: The West Cork Small Batch Single Malt Port Cask Finish matured for several years in first-fill ex-bourbon casks before being finished in Portuguese port casks from Quinta Da Boiera. This process combines sweet vanilla and caramel notes with intense aromas of dark berries and dried fruits. Bottled at 46% ABV without added coloring or chill filtration, this non-smoky, fruit-forward Irish whiskey is particularly well-suited for lovers of sweet and fruity whiskeys.
43% / Natural Color / Non chill filtered Single Malt Irish Whiskey, so far so good. It was time for me to try West Cork. Some people like it some people are disgusted by it. Time to unveil the truth and see how I feel about it. The color is very pale for a Port Cask finish so I am not expecting too much influence there. They used some casks from Quinta Da Boeira which is situated in Porto, Portugal. Let's get into it. N: Very light and pleasant. Loads of vanilla bursting with forest fruits and red berries. Blueberries and green apples. No youth note, no alcohol burn. Fairly nice nose. (85) P: Malty. Sweet and round. Triple distillation doing it's magic. Green apples with lots of vanilla and cinnamon. Blueberries with forest fruits and allspice. Great taste. Better than what I expected. (86) F: Medium. Sweet but after a while it gets dry. Some tannins and vanilla. (85) This is very reminiscent of the Glen Moray Port Cask finish. I like both. This is an affordable and nice whiskey. I can recommend it if you just want to drink something sweet and nice. 85 / 86 / 85 = 85.333 --> 85 pts / 100
