Nose: intense lemon, orange, and fig. Vanilla pudding and light fruit cake. Taste: bananas foster with a slight hint of apple and cinnamon. Very grassy hay finish. Light hint of vanilla, caramel, and toffee. Water brings out the citrus, wood oils and burnt fruit cake flavors. Not too bad but nothing mind blowing. You can definitely tell the grain is the dominant part of the blend but the malt and pot still definitely helps round things out. It’s good to see at a reasonable price rather than shoving outsourced stuff at a premium price.

Nose- sweet, light, but also malty (reminiscent of many Japanese single malts) Body- sweet with orange marmalade Finish- not a whole lot here, honeysuckle?
I am note sure what gives the task in this whiskey I don’t like. It’s probably grain that I don’t like, one day I will figure it out.
👃: maple, fruity, floral notes 👅: light, wheaty, medicinal notes 🏁: very smooth, subtle pepper and brine notes
Palate: light, crisp, citris Finish: smooth, brine
