Nose has a distinctly "Scotch" aroma with a hint of sweet... I swirled and it has great legs. Light bite...honey and pears in the first taste. unique soft hot finish. Very nice.

Nose is light... first taste hits you with mint and spices... very "bright" on the tongue... mellows with the finish. Unexpected taste... fairly unique.

Nose feels a bit bright and young... but if it sits a moment it mellows. solid bite... but backs off and lingers...finish is like pears or plums with a dash of pepper. Good taste and better with ice .
