Nose - Clean. Very open and inviting, almost like nosing a white wine. Apple. Taste - Very smooth with very little bite. Very hard to identify a strong taste, I would say it just tastes like solid scotch at its most basic. Finish - The only way you know there’s alcohol is in the finish, with some heat on the exhale through the nose. Score - 3.75 Scoring Legend 5.0 - Near perfect, there is something truly special about this whisky. 4.5 - Amazing, will always try to keep a bottle of this in my collection (if feasible). 4.0 - Very Good, maybe only one minor nitpick about the whisky keeping it here. 3.5 - Good, quite enjoyable to drink. 3.0 - Solid, wouldn't go out of my way to get it. 2.5 - Meh, still drinkable. Under 2.5 - If you have a bottle of this, start cooking with it instead.
