This June markes the 100th Anniversary of Father's
Day. Make sure you celebrate this one right, by giving your dad
(or grand-dad) one of these great, hard-to-find, whiskeys from Gomer's
Midtown!
Eades Anticipation Double Malt series
The Eades Anticipation Series has been hand crafted by Jim McEwan,
Master Distiller and malt whisky visionary, specifically for the
Virginia Distillery Company. Each Anticipation Double Malt whisky is a
faithful representation of a specific distilling region in Scotland.
Artisan craftsman Jim McEwan pairs exceptional spirits with a variety
of fine wine casks which compliment the natural character of the
whisky. Two of these enhanced whiskies from the same distilling region
are then selected and married at varying rations to create an
exceptionally balanced and complex expression.
Speyside: 50/50 Longmorn and Glenmoray
Deep amber color. Fragrant aromas of chocolate covered figs and dates,
roasted pecans, and pear blossoms. A round, supple entry leads to a
lively, dry-yet-fruity medium-full body of toffee, raisin toast,
roasted nuts, cocoa and spice. Finishes with a graceful fade. Very
tasty and chocolatey.
Highland: 85/15 Bennevis and Clynelish
Copper amber color. Butter roasted nuts, bittersweet chocolate, and
light heather aromas. A round, rich entry leads to a dry-yet-fruity
full body of chocolate toffee, brown spice, buttered nuts, and star
anise flavors. Finishes with a long, roasted grain and eucalyptus honey
fade with a dash of moss. Very rich and flavorful with nice balance and
scope of flavors.
