Tastes

Nose: lemon zest, straw, vanilla. Palate: honey, citrus, caramel. Finish: vanilla, honey, citrus, sichuan peppercorn. Long ,spicy, numbing finish. Taste is crisp but a bit harsh. A splash of water mellows it out, bringing out more sweetness, without diluting flavour too much. I would recommend Auchentoshan or Glenlivet to beginners, but not this.

Nose: honey, vanilla, cereal, mint. Palate: hot pepper, honey. Finish: toffee, white pepper, spices. Sweet and spicy finish. A lighter tasting, less rich, bourbon.

Nose: vanilla, acetone, touch of honey. Palate: vanilla, black/white pepper, acetone. Rich and creamy mouth feel with sharp alcohol burn. Finish: short finish with lingering vanilla and acetone.
