The palate, however, was rich and sticky. Peat and oloroso sherry intertwined around complex cocktails of minty mojitos and super cuba libres with an enthusiastic serving of rum. Water accentuated the rum components, but now with polished leather, hickory smoke and charred pine trees. The flavours had taken a tropical turn, welcoming an influx of soft nectarine, mango and toasted pineapple. Sherry notes cut through the fruit before upfront peat and smoke cascaded on to mulled cherry liqueur with a garnish of mint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 20px;\"\u003eAbout Milk \u0026amp; Honey\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIsrael’s first whisky distillery – M\u0026amp;H.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the beginning, the M\u0026amp;H Distillery was founded with a commitment to the highest international standards of quality, and respect for the centuries-old traditions of whisky making.

The concept behind the society was to source casks from all over Scotland which would then be bottled and made available exclusively to its members. Perhaps the most famous feature of these bottles are the unique codes. Each distillery is represented by a different number and the following digits indicate that particular release. That same year, the SMWS set up its first location in Leith’s Vault buildings in Edinburgh where it still stands today.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/article\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e64.3% ABV\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e70cl\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Milk \u0026 Honey","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52783291040082,"sku":"M\u0026H3SMWS155.6","price":135.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1052\/9737\/9666\/files\/4666769899_95ca02ea-4832-46ac-9740-b532e9cabbec.jpg?v=1771921087","url":"https:\/\/whiskysituation.co.uk\/products\/milk-honey-3-year-old-2019-smws-single-ex-oloroso-cask-155-6-rumbustious-rumifications-2023-70cl","provider":"Whisky Situation","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
