The first thing that hit me on the nose was butterscotch. Like, "holy butterscotch, Batman!" levels - rich, oily, creamy butterscotch, exactly like the hard candies in the bright gold wrapper. With that is coconut, floral notes, caramel, and a tiny hint of cinnamon. The palate is light and a bit fruity, with a less obnoxiously butterscotch quality, milk chocolate, coconut, vanilla, and an oily, but not heavy, body. This is a light, fresh, perfect-for-summertime whisky...but light doesn't mean insubstantial here. Plenty good neat, but I suspect it would hold up well on the rocks or with a bit of club soda for those times when you're really looking to go light and refreshing.
