Tastes

Will probably regret this later when you can't find it, but this is a steal for $40. The bottle I tasted had the same flavor profile as the Joseph Magnus (which is a finished whiskey) at half the cost, with a bit more caramel/vanilla/oak on the palate. The heat isn't bad at all for the higher proof. The distiller review is right on point at this being the perfect pour for those dark winter days - this one will warm you right up. 2022: Hard to find a bottle where I'm located and now priced anywhere from $55-70. At $55, it's a possible rebuy. If they want more than that I'd have to pass.

A big step above the 14. Much more full and rich! Love the spice on the front end. Orange peel and light citrus honey. Soft, peaty finish keeps you coming back for more. Top scotch and Oban will always have a place in my heart, having visited twice.
