Tasting Notes for Expression 5
Obviously this Expression 5 photo takes inspiration from all the whisky shots taken in beautiful scenery….
We drew samples of this The Founders’ Casks Expression 5 and through a panel of 12 whisky enthusiasts, we created these collective tastings notes.
The nose is gentle, with soft aromas of vanilla and green apples which are brightened with mixed herbs and whispers of hay. It’s creamy on the palate, laced with sweet peat smoke and freshly scraped vanilla pods. These pave the way for amber barley sugars, which twist into a lingering finish of marmalade and peppery spice.
The Packaging for Expression 5
As with all bottles in this series, it comes with an ultra premium box to display your bottle. The packaging also names everyone that was involved in our project, at the point of creating these whiskies.

Aged sherry saturates the nose with a rich bouquet of sultanas, nutmeg and dates, which are held aloft on a light base of toasted oak. A final waft of orange peel announces a honeyed palate that brims with dried fruits, berries and plums, topped off with hazelnuts and sharp pepper. The finish is dry and oaky, powdered with an earthy dash of cacao.

The Founders’ Casks Expression 3 Kentucky
Expression 3 of The Founders’ Casks is fully matured in charred ex-bourbon casks, which are hand-picked for quality and potency straight from the source in Kentucky. The whisky is bottled at a stiff 56.7% ABV (cask strength) and non-chill filtered to give full play to the sophistication of bourbon-infused oak.
Tasting Notes
We drew samples of this The Founders’ Casks Expression 3 and through a panel of 12 whisky enthusiasts, we created these collective tastings notes.
On the pour, this dram dances with aromas of malt, barley sugar and apples, rounded off with pears and a soft punch of melon. The palate is syrupy sweet, well rounded and warm like vanilla sponge cakes, straight out of the farmhouse oven. This expression melts into a comforting finish of brown sugar and toasted wood.
