Whisky Advocate

Review Date: 09/2023

Lebanese whisky produced at Riachi Distillery. Double distilled from high-roasted imperial dark malt and matured in new white oak casks, the nose is compelling, with notes of fresh-roasted coffee beans, cacao, vanilla pod, peppercorn, beautifully bitter high cocoa content chocolate, burnt fruitcake, and roasted pecans. It’s slightly mouth-drawing initially, developing flavors of velvety milk chocolate, burnt sugar, molasses, vanilla, espresso, and hazelnut truffle It’s delicious, but a little goes a long way.

Notes

From Lebanon’s pioneering Riachi Distillery comes one of the most unusual malts in the world, distilled entirely from 100% dark-roasted malted barley. Inspired by stout and espresso, the spirit offers a singular profile that bridges whisky and the roasted intensity of dark beer. The nose brims with espresso beans, bitter chocolate, and molasses, lifted by subtle vanilla and spice. The palate is bold and creamy, delivering waves of roasted coffee, cocoa, and hints of clove and caramel before softening into a medium finish with lingering espresso and vanilla cream. Bottled at 43% ABV, it is approachable in proof yet uncompromising in character. This groundbreaking release is as much a statement of innovation as it is a whisky, offering connoisseurs and adventurous drinkers a chance to experience malt from a completely new perspective.
