de Koningshoeven - La Trappe Quadrupel Oak Aged

This whiskey is much smoother and less "turfed" than its Scottish counterparts, making Batch 22 much smoother than previous batches matured on whiskey barrels. In addition to the malty and smoked flavor, it is also possible to distinguish banana, vanilla, honey, apple and flower scent. The whiskey is clearly present but does not dominate, which means that La Trappe Quadruple is still clearly recognizable. This leads to a balanced fusion of aromas, release of aromas of almonds and smoke. Batch 22 is full of flavor and very complex; With each sip new aroma associations appear. The aftertaste clearly shows the alcohol, along with the bitterness of wood tannin that lingers for a while. This may not be the most extreme batch, but thanks to its complexity and overall balanced flavor, we can really recommend it. Its fine bouquet is best appreciated when served at a temperature of 16-18 ° C (61 - 64.5 ° F). BATCH 22 was distributed as follows: used whiskey barrels (single malt) 83.3%; Acacia wood (medium toast) 8,3%; New Oak Medium Toast 4.2%; New oak High toast 4.2%.
