Tasting Notes
"Malty grain breakfast cereal, stewed fruits and a faint whiff of lemon on the nose give way to a much denser experience on the palate. Rich flavors of milk chocolate and toffee (Heath bars) mix with sweet, dried dates, prunes, and figs along with candied roasted nuts coat the palate of this super rich and viscous dessert whisky like a spoon mixing cake batter. A faint note of creamed coffee comes through toward the finish, but that's about as earthy as this big candy bar of a whisky gets. "
