Tastes

Love it, a well balanced Scotch, it's got a little bit of everything

Buttered toast on the nose. Brown sugar palate fully bodied finish that you can follow down your esophagus

caramel, kiwi, blackberries and baking spice notes

Nose: Baked Apples with a dusting of brown sugar Palate: Lemon cakes and a hint of smokiness. warming mouthfeel that continues all the way down Finish: peppery and tangy

light caramel nose that reminds me of the caramelized sugar on homemade cinnamon rolls. a little bit of nutmeg and orange zest as well caramel is strong on the palate too, with a touch of oaky vanilla from the barrels I know there is some Highland Park in this blend but I'm not detecting the smoky flavors I associate with it, so far being covered up by the malty flavors. vanilla and orange creamsicle on the finish with little to no alcohol burn This is up there with Monkey Shoulder as an excellent blended Scotch, would totally buy a full bottle.

Slightly smoky nose, vanilla, lemon cake palate, warming finish of caramel and butterscotch

distinctly Irish smell, light grassy notes. a bit on the astringent side for alcohol burn, not a lot of oils adding to the flavor. Got the bottle as a gift and I'm enjoying it but I might pass over this for a single malt or malt blend in the future
