ANGEL NECTAR NOT, MEATY AND SOUR DOUGH, OLD CHEWING GUM/BUBBLEGUM, SWEETNERSS 1.5 FLAT AND LACK OF FLAVOR, THIN SWEET NOTES OF FRUITS, IODINE 1 LIGHT THICK OIL, LIGHT PEAT., MID SUSTAIN 2.25 1.5 angel nectar sweetness caramel, honey candy, berry notes, cherry notes, red fruits, light and moderately delicate 3 Like a kid fruit juice, sweetness and zero burn very light and easy mellow, shallow, lacks complexity but a very simple clean beer-like texture, generally i prefer a heavier punch to my whisky. But you will also get a slight slight burn at the end, oaky. Honestly, haven't really tasted a whisky this light before, I could consider a bar edition for those who hates iodine flavor. You get fruity notes and floral notes 2.25 mid finish 2.25 2.5 (only as a bar edition to entertain people who do not enjoy the strong flavours of whisky)
