To be honest this name slightly annoys me and I was expecting that to influence how I liked / disliked the liquid but the truth is that this 40% abv travel expression was good enough to overcome this obstacle. The name refers to first fill bourbon casks, sherry casks and what the label describes as "traditional whisky casks" which means I assume re-used bourbon or sherry casks. So to call this a "triple cask' is sort of like saying Brexit is "the will of the people" when less than 50% of the country actually voted to Leave. The nose is fruity with green apples and polished wood. The taste has toffee sweetness, vanilla, barley sugar, marmalade and hints of oak that build into a bitter sweet but balanced finish. Drink neat as water does nothing for this, it just gets thin in mouth feel. Still don't like the name but a great product.
