Auchentoshan Virgin Oak

A pleasant whisky that lacks complexity, with faint floral notes and always-welcomed honey. Oak is the true superstar here (lumberyard was the first thing that came to mind when I blind tasted this). It's medium-bodied, with a palate that really highlights both the honey and wooden aromas. The finish is spiced and somewhat medium in length. Enjoyable, but not essential for the avid whisky collector.

5.5/10 Good. not great.
