Teeling small batch

Hey guys! How's it going?๐.
.
Time for another Irish whiskey review! ๐.
.
This time we have the Teeling small batch rum cask ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ช.
.
The standard expression of the Trinity range captivates with its personality as complex as it is discreet. The blend brings together single malts extracted from manually selected barrels, additionally aged for a period of 6-9 months in rum barrels to acquire truly authentic flavors, unprecedented in the bouquet of Irish whiskey. Teeling Small Batch is a blended whiskey easy to drink, with subtle rum influences (keyword subtle), which discreetly sweeten the aromatic palette. The expression is addressed especially to those who prefer sweet bouquet expressions.
.
Here is my review:.
.
Nose: Strong scent of fruit and sugar cane. Sweet apples, pears and apricots.
.
Palate: Oaky with vanilla and pears. Sweet and fruity.
.
Finish: Long, oaky.
.
Color: Gold.
.
It's an interesting whiskey for sure, but honestly I expected to taste that rum cask more, it's a sweet whiskey for sure, but the rum influence is way too muted and it leaves something to be desired. But that's my opinion ๐.
.
UPDATE: After letting it sit and breathe for a while the rum notes really start to shine! ๐คฉ.
.
What's your take on this one guys? Let me know in the comments.
.
Cheers guys and have a great weekend!๐ฅโจ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ช.
