Tastes

Insane flavor. The salty chocolate pretzel dipped in honey is a good way to describe with a vanilla citrus after taste. Funny how these flavor combos/descriptions are acceptable with whiskey but not so much when describing food.

Grrat expert notes. Expert score a bit lacking. Mid 90s for sure

Tastes akin to hibiki harmony. Soft sweet vanilla forward no burn and none of the alchol burn I tend to get from younger Irish whiskeys

This one needs to open up a bit and does best neat. Might even make a good mixer. Ice brings out a bitter tanic flacor that I didnt like. If it sits a while some of the ethanol flavors are tamed as well. Tried a sample in store from a half full bottle that had been open a bit and it was phenomenal for a $36 bottle. Tried a fresh pour from a new bottle and got more ethanol and bitter flavors than I got from the original taste

I get the apply pear fruity part and for sure rhe salty briny part but i dont get the peat flavors or maybe its so well done it doesnt smack you in the face like a laphroig or similar. Great stuff. I get the reason for the hype. Im a no peat sherry type of person and this one def opened my eyes to other styles of scotch.

This is so good.

Oddly enough it reminds me of red spot 15 year irish. $70 cure to a $300 itch. Similar. Not the same but close.

Nose has salinity and smells of a traditional scotch. Palate is fruity tart apple tad salty and a short but satisfying finish. Something similar with a longer finish would be glasgough sandend.

First taste like taking a bite of a caramel apple. Viscous Carmel-yand apple-y. So good. Will see how future bites may bring. Sips future sips.

Bitter chocolate raisin and dark fruit. Damn good.
