Little Book Chapter 2: Noe Simple Task

So different, so nice. It’s like a perfect “summer whiskey”—bright and light. Pears on the nose, pears/honey/citrus on the palate with a touch of heat.

Sweet

The nose is full of rye spice and for sure the familiarity of Canadian whiskey. The initial taste is Canadian rye, with just a hint of dusty oak (hint is relative, since there's supposed to be a 40 year old whiskey in there), with the finish being very weak for the proof. I would not be happy owning a full bottle of this for the price tag.

The nose leads off with some spice and fruit notes. More spice and oak on the palate, with maybe some vanilla. This is a well blended whiskey, but the oak and spice are too much for me personally, and borderline in excess. My score was 87.5
