Whisky I've Drank: John Medley's Bourbon



By Let's Talk Bourbon
Say hello to MEDLEY’S. Part of the larger Berentzen Group out of Germany, Medley’s made its way to Delhi last month. I had a chance to taste them straight up at the launch at the city’s favourite speakeasy PCO. And there were some lovely cocktails too. The recipes will follow in another post. But first, about the bourbon.
There are two variants available.
-Medley’s:
A straight Kentucky Bourbon, with a minimum ageing of 3 years. Golden brown in colour with hint of vanilla and spice matched with fumy notes and characteristic oak.
Available at approximately Rs. 1,685 in NCR
-John Medley’s:
This dark amber coloured bourbon is aged for 6 years. The nose conveys powerful scents of wood, combined with spicy notes and a hint of sweet vanilla. I like the duality of this whiskey. It goes down soft and mild, but it is certainly full bodied and powerful. A bourbon to take your time with. Sip and savour.
Available at Rs 3,250 in NCR
If you’ve had a chance to try Medley’s I’d love to know what you think. Leave a comment below and let me know. If you haven’t, you just may be able to get your hands on a bottle soon via Gigglewater. Stay tuned.
