Whisky Advocate 90 Points Rum barrels replace port wood in a reformulated Pike Creek. The sweetness of the rum finish accommodates higher proof and an extra 5% shot of rye, making this Pike Creek slightly fatter than the original. Crisp clean wood, sweet earthy fruitiness, brisk peppers, lovely tongue-tingling clove-like glow, cigarette tobacco, salt water taffy, raisins, dark plums, and tart fruit.
The nose offers a complexity of sweet, dried fruits with underlying peppery spice and subtle toffee notes. The palate is full and robust, with a well-balanced blend of dried fruits, vanilla and toffee. The pleasant Port finish is also warm and smooth.
