Nose is very simalar to Jägermeister, the simalarity is there on the taste too but less sweet and much more bitter. The bitterness reminds me of Gammeldansk or maybe Fernet Branca without the mint. It cloys at the back of your mouth and lingers there for a long time. There's also some sweeter orange peel notes in there.

Nose: Pine leaves, lemon zest, tart berries, lavender Palate: Opens on a dry and oily juniper pine note which turns into berries, rosemary, thyme, and then it explodes into citrus. Finish: Lemon cupcakes and lemonade lingering for an eternity This is excellent stuff! I have had this on my wishlist for a long time and I regret waiting so long to try it. Don't make the same mistake as me.

Nose: Rye spice, caramel, plums, ginger Palate: Brown sugar, molasses, pears, apples Finish: Ginger and some baking spices A very unremarkable whisky. Very smooth and easy to sip, it feels watered down. It's not bad, but it's very faint in both smell and taste and fades quickly afterwards. Good for beginners or as a mixer. Goes well with coke.

Reviewed February 5, 2019 (edited February 6, 2019)Nose: Plums and a chocolate bitterness with an undertone of mint and orange zest Palate: Cinnamon, ginger, cloves, apple sauce Finish: Black pepper, dried apricots, vanilla A very interesting whisky that keeps changing and keeps you guessing. Very rich and potent and has me going back for another sip again and again to see if I've missed something. -
Springbank 10 Year
Single Malt — Campbeltown, Scotland
Reviewed February 4, 2019 (edited November 30, 2019)Nose: Sharp and dry peat, salted caramel, grapes, tart apples Palate: Oily peat smoke, pears, ginger, cinnamon and more baking spices Finish: Ash, tobacco, more pears and back to the baking spices as the finish goes on forever. This really is something special and one of my favorites. A whisky that fights you a little before you gain it's trust and unlock it's secrets. I bought a second bottle before there was even a chance that I would run out. It's magnificent.
