Carlyle Blended Scotch Whisky

Nose: right out of the gate there’s a strong punch of paint-like fumes (guessing partly the alcohol) that’s almost transitions to a perfume essence that’s initially a little off putting, but let it sit for a few minutes and it’ll subside some. Malty notes appear, brown sugar, floral notes, some fruit notes, nothing overly complex. Taste: presents better than the nose, malt, some fruits but fades quickly, spices (can’t quite place them), woody barrel notes, slight bitterness, light char and pepper finish, does not linger very long. Ok, but considering the price, half decent. Works well for a highball or a scotch and ginger ale. Worth a try. You never know. For as cheap as it is, it’s low risk.

If you want some passable scotch at a dirt cheap price point without breaking into your good stuff, this is the one.

Solid for price. Spices and smoke. Fairly smooth for cost

A wonderfully fruity nose that leads to more fruit, honey and some grassy notes on the palate. One of the best budget blends I’ve ever had. Punches well above its weight. Nice.
