Port Charlotte PC5 Evolution

Ingesting cleaning products won't cure coronavirus, but I'm unsure if a whisky exists that might. If there's one that could, which would it be? Port Charlotte PC5 Evolution. 6,038 bottles were released in 2006. The scarce bottles still available on the secondary market now sell for $500-900. Quite a price, if it's effective against coronavirus. This is the most purely "medicinal" tasting whisky I've ever encountered. PC5 is like fruits dissolved in 63.5% ethanol and 36.5% other chemical and organic solvents. Is there actually any water in here? It certainly contains butane, butyric acid, lactic acid, sauerkraut brine, and flaxseed oil. The peculiar smoke in this whisky is incredible. I generally dislike cheese, and I detest strong-smelling cheeses; however, I absolutely adore intensely flavored whiskies. In the mouth, its consistency is like engine oil. The whisky is merely 5 years old, yet it delivers an endlessly rich, rustic smoke that feels ancient, coiled within the seven unseen dimensions of string theory, only released upon swallowing and transitioning into the hazy finish. Adding a bit of water reveals sweeter notes, creating a more balanced whisky. You can find some milk chocolate, vanilla yogurt, and ripe blueberries. However, this whisky is so overwhelmingly defined by its sharp, potent smoke that these faint traces of pleasant flavors seem like intrusions in a boundless liquid that resides at the edge of understanding. I've never possessed a bottle of PC5, and I still consider my PC8 the superior whisky, likely because comprehending the sheer intensity of PC5 is beyond my capabilities. Score: *** (I am not worthy) Secondary market price: $500-900 My perceived value: $500

The aroma isn't the best, but the taste is incredible. Red and dark berries are present beneath the well-balanced, creamy peat.

Enjoyed at Jack Rose in Washington D.C. 1 oz pour. It was delicious!
