Tastes

Quality expression but it doesn't blow my ind but good.

Bottle has opened up nicely and has a unique flavor profile. Just wish it was bottled at cask strength!

Delicious flavor profile

Not sure what these reviewers are smokin but this is not a 91 point whisky. This is a mediocre dram thats not terrible but not memorable like a true 91 point whisky like Laphroaig 10 cask strength batch 12. If you have a chance try these two side by side and your eyes will pop when you sip the Batch 12 after this mediocre whisky.

I have reevaluated and its just OK. Not very memorable for my palate.

Reviewer must have been smokin some waki tobacci to get that stratospheric score. As a comparison to real life I posted whiskybase scores here which are much more realistic. There seems to be so much hype in whisky scores depending on who is contributing to the reviewers bank accounts.! https://www.whiskybase.com/whiskies/whisky/152909/bushmills-21-year-old
