Review:
I am going to close out this months Irish Whiskey review with the opposite of a BANG. I like to keep it real and review everything that I can taste regardless of quality or status.
Knockmore Irish Whiskey Batch #14 is a non-aged started whiskey aged in ex-bourbon casks and bottled at 80 proof. Blend of aged single malts around 8-10 years but does not smell or taste like that length of time. Batch 14 is the title, but I don’t think it matters.
It has been created by Southwest Spirits and Wine (from Texas) due to a merge between Southwest Distillery and Prairie Creek Beverages. Knockmore won a award in 2017. I wonder what major spirit company was sponsoring an award show….hint hint.
Hard to nose, and has a light cream taste and noncomplex taste profile.
Price around $35 and tastes like dog shit with water. and I got to taste it for free. I would not buy a bottle.
If you like it, drink it! – Christopher
