Baldpacker 3.8

A surprising and underappreciated whisky for the price. I'd give this a 3.5 on my normal scale but bumped it up to 3.75 based on the value. Could even be a 4+ for whisky forward cocktails (great in an old fashioned). The nose is sweet honey and vanilla - very similar to Speyside. Maybe some green apple. Taste is very sweet and syrupy on the tongue with cereals and a slight spicy finish, likely due to its youth. A drop of water brings out some oak in the nose and smoke in the finish. Subtle but adds some complexity to an otherwise simple but tasty dram. One of the best budget whiskies out there. My new go to for a "daily" Old Fashioned or hot weather day tumbler on the rocks.

Nicomo Cosca 3.5

Tasted this (neat) in Spain as I wanted to try local whisky's. It's certainly decent and for such a low price too. So while for me it can't compete with more expensive international whisky's, in it's own pricerange it probably beats a lot of the competition.

granicz 3.8

Wow, what a find! Ordered it directly from Spain, and I have to say that within this price range it's one of the best whiskies I had. Gorgeous light color, stunning on the nose, and works well on the palate too with its semi-aggressive yet smooth tones.
