Tasting Notes

"This whiskey is like a skyscraper erected by a talented architect. While it shows a little flash what makes it great is its well-built foundation and simple skeleton. The nose shows a classic hallmark of rich caramel, but also reveals some individuality with dried fruit drenched in mint syrup. The palate scales the heights with a glossy smooth texture up front. The mid-palate is rich with spices that are embellished by the heat of the alcohol. The finish caps everything with dry wood smoke. Nothing lavish like the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, but stalwart top to bottom."
