Tasting Notes
"The aroma of this whiskey falls on the breakfast-y side with toasted nutty cereal along with sweet honey and light vanilla notes. There's some tart lemon zest there too. As you taste the whiskey is on the medium side with more of the same flavors as the nose. The spice notes are on the mild/medium side and there's just a faint char smoke on the bittersweet and tangy finish. Not too complex, but a nice dram to have along side a pint of beer. "
