We turn our attention to Whiskey Review: Milam and Greene The Castle Hill Series Batch 2 bottled at 111 proof. It enters a competitive field.
Nose
In the mouth, it’s very different than it was on the nose. This is a mild and well-mannered whiskey, which is a little surprising at 111 proof. Think brown sugar, caramel, and vanilla, with a slight touch of cinnamon spice and a long, luxurious finish.
Palate
Batch 2 is available in only 11 states, but if you see it at your local store, give some serious consideration to adding it to your shopping list – despite the somewhat steep price tag. Greene has blended a whiskey here that is distinctive and surprising, which is not something I find often.rnrn
