Morris French Oak Single Barrel Whisky Review – The Real Morris Spirit?

Описание: This is my review of the latest single barrel release from Morris Whisky — the French Oak Single Barrel.

Unlike most Morris releases, this cask showed minimal influence from wine or fortified wine, letting the distillery’s single malt spirit truly shine. For me, this might just be the purest expression of the Morris DNA so far.

In this video, I explore how the French oak maturation impacts the flavour, how it compares to other Morris whiskies, and whether it captures the essence of the brand’s signature style.

This is a limited release and will likely sell out quick. Don’t miss out:

Disclaimer: In the video, I mistakenly refer to the cask as virgin oak. This was incorrect — it’s not a virgin cask, but rather a French oak barrel that previously held red wine. The shaving, toasting and re-charring process before the barrel was re-used meant there was minimal flavour influence from the red wine.
