Tasting Notes
"Does a "signature gold finishing method" do anything for a whiskey, other than provide a marketing gimmick? Though Gold Bar plays this to the hilt, the liquid inside is a straightforward light blend. It's easy to drink, with just enough oak to provide a fittingly golden hue, and a gentle grain aroma that gives way to fruity pear on the finish. It's a pleasant enough whiskey, though not a particularly interesting one, and in ordinary packaging it would be easily passed over. More glam than dram, serious whiskey drinkers can probably find better ways to spend their coin."
