Tastes

Nose - This nose is giving me a lot of fruit. Some apple, grape, bright blackberry, alongside some vanilla. There is also a little breadiness to this, almost very charcuterie like. Some baked honey and vanilla lingers around the fruit, adding more to the idea of a wine spread. Palate - So off the bat notice a lot more oak than ‘23. However, theres a lot of light custard, vanilla, tobacco, and cherry notes that compliment it sooo nicely. There adds some barrel spice and black pepper in a very comfortable way. Finish - The finish pairs fantasticly with the palate. The transfer is seamless and not as harsh as the proof may suggest. It goes from that light barrel spice back into a vanilla and down into a cinnamon before disipating into a medium comfortable hug.

Nose - Lots of berries, cream, charred leather, toasted oak, hints of honey, mandarin, apricot. Extremely complex and keeps changing. Berry skittles. Palate - More of that toasted tight leather. Some more bright berry and soft vanilla (cream). A small amount of smoke from a charred oak. Finish - Nice and warm buttered cinnamon and barrel spice.

Nose - Some bitter peat, dried apricot, plum, stained lightly toasted leather. Palate - Light, smooth, maybe some bitter wood and more of that dried apricot/plum. Its a light fruity note, nothing crazy but nice and easy to sip on. Theres some herbal/vegetale notes as well that kind of pair well with the dry fruit. Almost like it would be a great whiskey to have with a charcuterie board. Finish - A very light a smooth version of the palate. Not my speed but definitely one of the better scotch’s ive had.

Reviewed November 10, 2024 (edited May 9, 2026)Nose - Phenomenal nose! Loads of dulce de leche, mixed with condense milk on top of a blonde brownie. TSuch a sweet, and complex desserty nose. It legit smells like a freshly baked cake with cream cheese frosting, sweet and thick. Palate - Yea thats nice, might be the best gts off the bat. Nice and sweet with lots of barrel char, spice, and cinnamon. Definitely get more of that vanilla cake with a side of vanilla cola. Finish - Some more cola, oak, cinnamon, pepper, all over a layer of vanilla custard. Awesome pour -

*** MBS *** Nose - Some cinnamon some baking spice. Theres some burnt smokiness in here like a fresh burnt oak. Theres some vanilla sweetness but its not the highlight of the nose. Some bt cherry if course. Palate - Its thin but really nice and more complex than a regular BT. Some baking spice, cherry, and leather. Simple combination but works well to be complex on the spice Finish - Some cherry and cinnamon. Hotter on the way down but not overbearing.
