Nose: ethanol and vanilla Palate: vanilla, toasted grain, and almond. Very thin body on this whiskey. Finish: Very short vanilla with a hint of toasted oak leads to a weird dry bitter almond aftertaste and leaves your mouth feeling like you just ate an almond and don’t have any water to wash it down Summary: for the price there are whiskeys that will absolutely blow this out of the water, it was given to me by a member of a whiskey club who did not like it, and I see why. The dry bitterness compliments the lemon in a whiskey sour though!
