Tastes

Sherry and honey on the nose together with some fruity notes. Taste does not have lots of sherry, but rather honey, vanilla and fruits; namely apples and oranges. Has a rather long finish with some chocolate and leathery notes. Overall, very sweet and balanced. Really enjoyed this, especially the unexpected leathery notes at the finish. Simply excellent.

Smooth and sweet. Finish is a little too short. It is not very complex. However, sometimes in life you want a little simplicity.

Fruits and nutmegs. A little chocolate. Bit smoky, but not overwhelming. Enjoyed sipping this. More expensive and harder to find than Black Bush in my country, but still a great daily whiskey.

Very smoky, tastes and smells like smoked meat and smoked fish. High iodine smell, salty and maritime. It has a very prominent character. Love it.

Just like J&B Rare, only way I can drink this one is if it is in a cocktail.

It is smoky, however it also feels like drinking liquid ash from an ashtray. At the same time it manages to be very flat. Not my favourite, however it is relatively cheap.

This one kind of feels like I am drinking acetone. However I can understand that this is primarily a bar drink, and I respect that.

Like it, but would prefer something else over it probably. Smoky yet also fruity and refreshing.

Caramel and oranges. Not exactly my type of scotch and I do not think it has a dominant characteristic.

Only way I will ever willingly drink this again is if it’s in a cocktail.
