Glass: Glencairn, rested 15 minutes. Color: Medium amber. Nose: Toffee and sweet raisin notes. Palate: Some light spice up front with a buttery mouthfeel. Finish: Short and not very warm. Splash: No new flavors are revealed, but somehow the finish improves. Overall: 7.5/10 - Given the chance to pick up this bottle at Jameson in Dublin, I was curious. I didn't get a chance to taste it at Jameson's bar, but I'm glad I picked this up. A little bump in proof would go a long way, but it's a tasty pour.

Maple and oak on the nose. Vanilla and oak on the palate. Super smooth sipper with a very light mouthfeel. Goes down really easy with little to no burn.
Thought id better try the exclusive. Boozy, musty, caramel, banana and a little spice
Smooth vanilla flavor with an easy end. One of my favorites.
Fruity, very atypical but interesting
Very smooth, sherry and honey
