East London Liquor Co. 3 Year Old 2019 - The Heart Cut #2
East London Liquor Company
Tasting Notes
Imagine sinking your teeth into a decadent chocolate brownie, loaded with toasted walnuts and a hint of spicy pepper. That's the aroma that greets you as you uncork this remarkable rye whiskey from East London Liquor Co. On the palate, it's a symphony of dark cherry chocolate, cooked stone fruits, a kiss of honey, and the zesty tang of candied orange. The finish lingers with the warmth of toasted almonds, the richness of cacao, and a final whisper of pepper. This whiskey's journey began in 2019, when it was distilled and then aged in a single cask that previously held Hackney Brewery's Chocolate Stout, infusing it with a unique depth of flavor. When the cask was opened in 2023, a mere 344 bottles emerged, each one a liquid treasure waiting to be savored.
