Fortis is a single malt that’s matured entirely in Australian red wine casks, mostly from the Barossa Valley. These impart all sorts of dark stone fruit and black forrest gateau notes to the whisky, along with a chewy mouthfeel and satisfying dryness to the finish.

A complete surprise. A mouthful bursting with contradictory flavours which at first lead to confusion (Australia? Whiskey?) but blend into a wonderfully smooth experience with an expensive Kentucky aftertaste.

Really enjoying the variety of the samples delivered. I had a problem over a missing delivery but the problem was sorted very quickly and I was very impressed with yiur response.
About the 8th of the month I start watching the postie making his rounds in eager anticipation of delivery of latest WhiskyMe dram.
Four months in and I'm happy to say it's been a good experience sampling whisky I probably wouldn't have purchased. They've all been interesting and the leaflet with the tasting notes is welcome too.
Now I keep the little orange pouch to the Thursday internet tasting. As an amateur whisky lover I'm intrigued by the fulsome technical descriptions of the distilling process. Each distillery seems to have an individual approach developed over the years. Half of it I don't begin to understand but it's quite pleasant sitting sipping a dram listening to the chat and enjoying their enthusiasm.
So far all the Whisky Me drams gave been excellent and I also bought a bottle of the KinGlassie 12 year old after the tasting as it really hit the bullseye for me.
My subscription was a birthday gift and it's a great present.
The mix of a novel dram like Hogsworth with a more traditional Loch Lomond was inspired. Charming presenting as ever!
Timely, responsive, great value. . . . I highly recommend WhiskyMe to any and all who drink whisky!
