Glenmorangie Astar 2017 Edition

Very strong long lingering finish, sweet smooth buttery biscuit in a way like an Irish. Excellent blend, potent! Need to try with a drop of water.

This is another ohio discount where I think I paid 60 for it. Though i think this retails in the 100 range. Nose - Vanilla custard...very dessert like. Maybe some marmalade. Very simple and very sweet. Taste - I get a lot of american oak. To the point one could tell me this was fresh oak (I know it wasn't) finished. There's some nice creme brulee finish. This is soft and sweet oak and vanilla. A bit of char and maybe a hint of milk chocolate (think the chocolate milk stuff). A perfectly fine, sweet, oak, vanilla whisky. I'm going 2 stars as I like the mouth feel and abv. There's not much going on here beyond just being a nice sweet dessert whisky.
