Tasting Notes
"The aroma has a gentle peat smoke note, an accent really that only enhances the whisky. There's a sweet honeyed note as well as a mix of toasted cereal and sweet malted barley. Dried herbs and citrus peel are also found. On the palate, the whisky is a bit oily with a medium fullness, a moderate sweetness and a tangy finish. There is some rye spiciness to be found, but it's not a main player. Fans of Johnnie Black will miss the peaty punch, but it's a decent everyday dram (especially for its price point) and a mixable whisky for all sorts of cocktails. Try a Whiskey Sour."
