High-rye spice meets the creamy, mellow embrace of wheat, aged for 60 months in the unforgiving Okanagan heat. This isn't a "polite" drink—it’s a power move." - Glen Neamh https://glenneamh.com/ols/products/glen-neamh-whisky-co-stoneboat-vineyards-pinot-noir-cask-finish Follow Tabletop Tastings: TT on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tabletoptastings/ Les on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/les.tabletoptastings/ Steve on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/slicedicedrams/ Email us: les.tabletoptastings@gmail.com And a special thank you to Dane Von Hardenberg for scoring the music to our outro.
