Nose: honey, lemon, sharp bitter orange. Taste: butter cookie and spicy cinnamon. It has a really sharp and bitter finish. Water does not alter the nose but brings out the taste with more spicy cinnamon and honey with bitter grapes and dates with red wine. It's okay. Nothing amazing. Much better Irish out there.
Lovely. It has less viscosity than Compass Box Hedonism but the same distinctive sharp vanilla note, followed by the red wine finish providing a pleasant contrast. I’d get a bottle of this but hard to find on shelves in USA
Incredibly smooth. The aging in Bordeaux casks really puts a unique berry flavor to this whiskey. If you enjoy a red wine you will definitely enjoy this.
Semi-sweet and creamy with notes of caramel, vanilla, milk chocolate, short bread and berries on the nose and palate. Medium finish is peppery.
Very nice single grain. Smooth and tasty. We really have the note of a good red wine as finish. Easy to drink :)
Liquid toffee with a gentle squeeze of orange peel and twist of fresh rained on sweet grass
