Smooth and vanilla; very easy drinking. A little one-note and tasteless, but easy drinking. Probably a good intro Scotch due to almost no burn, smooth vanilla flavors, no smoke at all. But for the regular drinker a little boring. Not bad, just boring.
This was a neat find. It reminds me a bit of a nicer Irish whiskey. The grains are present as is the oak. It has light mouthfeel and a short but smooth finish. It’s worth picking up if you see a bottle.
Very Light, delicate, sweet, caramel. Great as an introduction for those new to scotch.
Oily. A little toasty. Boozy. Faint burnt rubber and anise. Acetone in the aroma.
Love the heavy banana nose, fun and different
