Tasting Notes
"There's a pleasant aroma of honey drizzled on dried oranges and toasted barley. A campfire is present, but is in the distance. These aromas follow on the palate where the lightly-peated malt comes a bit more in focus. A minty back-note accompanies the whisky on the finish. Overall, this is a pleasurable whisky that has the flavors working in harmony with the malt. The peat is used modestly and though it may not please the uber peat-head as it is far too weak on the smoke, it would please many others' palates (and pocketbooks as it is priced well under $100)."
