Tasting Notes
"Citrus zest and spice lead on the nose, with candied orange, and lemon Pledge. The palate is creamy with a sweet vanilla and toffee side courtesy of those three grain whiskies. Finish is spicy and starts hot, mellowing into a fruity sweetness with oak and vanilla pudding, and a touch of spearmint, with the zesty citrus and spice remaining a constant all the way through—and that characteristic should make this one a winner for classic cocktails."
