A bit like an old boot

A brisk, easy pour that brings a lot more flavor than one would expect. I get smells of oranges and deeper tones as well, vanilla and caramel. On the palate it doesn't linger, but is bright and sparkly and pleasant. This whiskey is sunshine in a glass. Drink when the weather is dreary and you need a fine Scottish friend to cheer you up. Best consumed with a grilled haddock with a side of mashed potatoes, leeks, and a small rye bread roll.

I had a sample of this at total wine in houston and it is a nice Whisky. Bottled at 40%. On the nose and palate: apples with dim smoke. Beautiful balance between fruity and peatiness. Aftertaste has a puff of dim smoke. Overall this whisky is a good offering. 82 over 100.

Light, not super flavorful but enjoyable. Better on the second sip.
