Reviewed February 21, 2022 (edited February 22, 2022)Nose- Fresh mint, vanilla extract, and orchard fruit. There is a slight smokiness in the background with a tad bit of peach pit. Palate- the taste is decently rich and buttery. The fruit on the nose turns a bit citrusy yet creamy like lemon curd. The vanilla still comes through with a little bit of barnyard hay. Finish is shorter and not overpowering. I get a bit-o-honey candy note, but then there is a touch of bitterness and Sulphur at the end. Not horribly off putting, but could be better. Overall- This could be like a daily drinker for a single malt fan. Has a lot of nice parts- mouthfeel, vibrant fruit, honey, but then gets disjointed in the end like a young bourbon might do. I like the mouthfeel and the fruitiness, but I don't dig the sulphur and bitterness at the end. To me it is JUST another Scotch. A good scotch, definitely not bad.... Nothing to bowl you over, but certainly nothing you would turn your nose up at.
