One of the bottles I picked for my monthly whiskey club, poured the samples yesterday and finally got around to trying it today. I'll probably review this again later this week since my nose is still full of dust and dirt from gardening all day and even my brain is exhausted from all the sun I got.
Nose: Light fruits - like pears, soft apples, and even green banana. Soft maltiness and a surprising bit of spice and lemon.
Palate: Surprisingly spicy at first with lime zest and fleeting tropical fruits. Very light and floral clover honey. More spice on the second sip, mostly cinnamon and floral cardamom.
Finish: Short and sweet. This definitely doesn't last long, but the little that remains is coconut, sugar cookie, and subtle lemon.
Conclusion: Honestly, this was the perfect pour after a hot day in the garden - light, floral, citrus, smooth - everything you could ask for! It's not the most complex whiskey, but I think that's exactly what I needed, something to just sit down and enjoy without pondering over it. I think it would be a good, cheap bottle to keep in stock for a summer pour.
