Tasting Notes

"A whisky that confirms it’s cool to stay in school. The nose builds from wet straw, lilacs and other spring flowers to brown sugar, caramel and drops of chocolate mint. Rye bread and ginger baking spices are accented with honeycomb. A blend of white and black pepper shifts to a scholarly citrus pith completing this essay of flavors. "
