Aromatic tones of vanilla-malt, wood, and caramel greet the nose along with juiced apricot and barely-ripe banana. The palate is layers of hay and sweet banana, malt, nutmeg, and aged oak seasoned with spice and sticky marshmallow spread. …

Frootbat Reviews - What our customers say

Ratings & Reviews (1)

Tonight's dram takes me (virtually) to the mountains of mountains of Wanship, Utah, where the air is thin and the whisky is “superb” – or so they say. The High Country opens with malty-vanilla, virgin oak, and caramel – subtle flavors that mash-up well, followed by under-ripe banana – light banana flavor, nutmeg, spice, and chewy-candy orange slices, then finally, charred marshmallows, with the char offsetting the sweet – similar to a bananas Foster, with a dusting of finely-grated dark chocolate. The legs are thick and clingy, delivering a medium-long finish of yummy desert-in-a-glass. I’m not typically a fan of banana flavors, but this is extremely well-balanced, complex, and smooth – worthy of elongated study. Superb indeed! Drink slow, drink long, drink a variety, drink often.
