Tasting Notes
"This whisky is like a tumbleweed. It has a scraggly side, but it skids across the palate gracefully with purpose. Heavy butterscotch and caramel hit the nose faster than a speeding bullet. In the mouth, the whisky’s youthful spirit balances that familiar wheat smoothness with a single bound. Spices attack the mouth with dusty grain and wood spice building into a finish that’s more powerful than a locomotive. The right amount of citrus pith rolls into the credits."
