Tasting Notes

"Sipping this whisky is almost a tasting experience in reverse - instead of heat in the finish, there's a vivacious fireball upfront, but things simmer down with a lavender and wildflower floral arrangement presented in a tidy package along with bittersweet chocolate, dried fruit, ever so slightly stale mixed nuts - the kind a grande dame might present in her parlor - along with the Assam tea from the pot. It's thinner, more saline, less sweet and creamy than one would expect from a grain blend, but what it lacks in texture it delivers in flavor. "
