I've had a bottle before and I remember it being a light, easy-drinking whisky. I was gifted a bottle for Christmas and I'm looking forward to enjoying it again. The appearance is light and straw coloured. Nose: Honey. And honey. Very sweet on the nose. Lingering in the background there are some dried fruits, particularly raisins and plums, as well as some fresh cut grass. I'm not getting much spice at all. Palate: Light and rich initially with more honey. Relatively thin mouthfeel. There's definitely some vanilla and brown sugar hiding in the background and a subtle peppery spice later on. Finish: Medium in length. There's a nice chewy maltiness that lingers once the honey sweetness subsides. The light pepperiness sticks around for a little extra dimension as well. Overall this is a good whisky. It's not overly complex but is a very easy drinker. This is certainly one I would use to introduce a new whisky drinker to scotch. I feel like there are much better, more complex whiskys for a better price.

This one is a bit rough. Not my favorite. Not sweet and not peaty

Nose. Honey, smoke and sea salt. Palate. More honey, vanilla, some malt and a touch of spicy smoke. Finish. Medium-long and malty.

Probably the one i dislike the most

Horny, vanilje good whiskey

Nose: peat, honey, sea spray, grapes, slight woodiness Nose after swirl: briny-er, very sea spray, light nose, way more wood, peaty Palette: light mouthfeel, light & delicate flavors, hard to pinpoint specific notes because I'm sitting in front of a charcuterie board lol, biggest is the peat Finish: long, but diminishes in a second after the long finish, very sea-peat-heavy
