Tastes

Nose - sweet smelling, hints of fresh apples among other fruity scents. Slightly oaky. Flavour - Rich and delicate, almost silky as it hits the tongue. The sweetness of the fruits are there, but lacks a lasting flavour. Smooth finish as it washes down.

Nose - Honey, caramel, and light fruitiness, hints of vanilla. Taste - hits the tongue very smooth and mellow. Slight nuttiness at the end with hardly any bite at the finish. Definitely would recommend for a casual or beginning scotch drinker.

Not too much stands out about this. The color is light and simple. Legs run very thin but hold on a while before sliding down the glass. Nose - inviting at first but seems to have a little burn at the end. Lacks any defining character. Taste - enters with a slight sweet spice, but finishes rather bland with an oaky taste that ends rather abruptly. Bit of a burn at the end.

Very lovely. Takes a lot of its character from its Cognac cask. The color is a beautiful amber, reflected like a mirror when held up to the sun. The nose is a nice, sickly sweet scent. Hints of of the charred oak and almost a cherry tree sap smell, definitely inspired by the Cognac. Palette delivers much of what would be expected by the nose, after which is settled by a rich, smoky flavour that gently lets the finish go down nice and smoothly.

Mellow spice with a bit of bite at the end. Finish is short and quick. Not good enough for an everyday but not a bad choice.
