Reviewed December 14, 2020 (edited July 20, 2021)The overrated whisky of the year? I had this when it first came out over in the UK and felt it was young and off, but I had to buy my own bottle to explore. So is it better now? Nose - oak, a lot of oak actually. Then I get this under ripe banana that signals YOUNG whisky. A lot of alcohol. I get some chalk and perhaps some brown sugar. I'm oddly not getting much sherry but we'll come back with water. Water might have made it more dusty. A lot of alcohol and maybe some cherry now which I get in the taste so maybe that's influencing me. Taste - There's some dirty notes, clay, oak, I get corn oddly enough like a bloody butcher corn, cereal notes, and then some chocolate and some of those alcohol soaked cherries. Water opens this up into a more sherry driven sweeter dram. Still young, alcohol bite and yes some unique and interesting flavors. You know what cinnamon a lot of it, more than I've gotten on anything scotch. This is balcones malt levels of cinnamon or some versions of bookers. It's getting into red hot levels. I truly am not enjoying this. Everything about this is "craft" and unique which I want to be favorable for. It's just not enjoyable to drink. That said good abv and they clearly used an active cask. I'm scoring this a 1.75 but I really want to give it a 1.0 based on my enjoyment. I'm sorry I just don't get it. I don't like it.100.0 USD per Bottle
