The nose is sharp and briny with vanilla notes taking center stage.
The drink is light with grains dominating the flavor. It is a bitter spirit with very little sweet vanilla at the front of each sip. A briny quality dominates the tail of the drink and masks more complex flavors. Buy this one for the bottle alone.
Based on other reviews, I was led to believe this would taste like hot garbage. Honestly, it wasn't even the worst JW I've had. It was squarely just forgettable.
To be fair, I had a cold-ish pour (left in a car at around 45 degrees F) from a half empty bottle, so I had the benefit of cold and oxidation, but it was pretty smooth and somewhat sweet for scotch.
