The Penderyn Myth is part of their “Drgn” line which is characterized by lower ABV, less expensive whiskies as compared to their “Gold” lineup. The Myth is matured in ex-Buffalo Trace casks for approximately six years and is then finished for six to twelve months is a variety of ex-red wine casks. As with all Penderyns, the Myth is an unfiltered whisky and contains no artificial coloring.

The Nose:  Fresh and bright, with fruit and new make notes. There’s pale, floral honey, poached pear, and juicy orange upfront, but behind that lurks a subtle, complex mix of fruit – sticky raisins, dried red fruits, and a hint of passionfruit. Further in the background, toasty cereal grain and candy-coated almonds lead to quiet oak notes, vanilla bean, and brûlée-d sugar.

The Palate:  This follows the nose nicely – more honey, more citrus, and a more pronounced wine-y-ness. The raisin-y quality is back, as are dried cherries, caramelized sugar, and deeper tropical fruit notes. Sticky vanilla bean, malt syrup, almond toffee, and hints of fruitcake follow. The oak is sharp, with spice notes of hot cinnamon and candied ginger.

 

The Finish:  Some winey fruit notes hang on, along with the youthful grippy oak, candied ginger, and allspice.
