Good nose with lemon cinnamon, leather and mild oak notes. Palette entry is smooth with orange peel and a rounded feel. Let down entirely by the finish which has an unusually sharp sting for a 21 and a strange late peat on the end which is completely unexpected and not quite in jive with the rest of the profile. The blend crowd will like this a lot more than the single malt folks.

A good, light taste, unpeated. Nose has decent elements of leather. Taste has strong tones of Green Apple Jolly Rancher candies. Very clean finish. No harshness at any point.
Very different nose than it presents. Nose is floral and mild. A little bland with some heat. Unique and worth trying, but not a favorite
Sweet & soft. Enter very easily and finishes warm.
Nah..... old but not my thang
