Smell: Milk chocolate, light peat smoke, vanilla, sultanas, ginger, rock sugar and a light herbal/hay touch. It's a light smell overall but quite pleasant.
Taste: The taste follows the nose quite well. Milk chocolate, light peat smoke, vanilla sultanas, ginger and white sugars are there. Note for note. Taste is about as strong as the smell was too. WITH WATER: The milk chocolate takes more "space" and that's pretty much it.
Finish: Light pepper, vanilla and ginger are the main notes of the finish. It's not very long lasting, which isn't surprising for the ABV and since it's a blended whisky.
Mouthfeel: Light and watery, worst part of this whisky easily. WITH WATER: Makes it a bit less watery.
Overall: "Pleasant" is how I would define this whisky. It's pretty darn good tasting for the price, nothing surprising and somewhat harmless but not too boring to distract. It's a great whisky to drink when you feel like drinking a scotch but don't plan on giving it too much of your attention. It's a great "standard issue" scotch. Water didn't change much the whisky.
