Tasting Notes
"It's adult breakfast cereal in a glass, with dominant flavors of toasted barley, wheat flakes and general maltiness. Some milk chocolate and vanilla come through in the mid palate, along with roasted pears, apple and a hint of wildflower. Very mild, smooth and pleasant, this is one of the great starter whiskies, either for newbies getting to know Scotch or as a way to kick off a night of good sipping. "
