Really great easy sipper!! A must try/buy for your “everyday dram”.
Nose: Cinnamon candies (more sweet than spice), and white bread (Wonderbread to be specific).
Palate: Pure Ceylon Cinnamon, Oolong Black tea, and corn syrup. Subtle orange citrus.
Finish: More of the cinnamon and black tea, and that sour mash tang.
There is cinnamon from start to finish, but it isnt necessarily super spicy. Very sweet and buoyed by other unique flavors. I have never tasted such prominent Black/Oolong tea in a whiskey and was very surprised.
This is a great “everyday dram” and is worth the money in my opinion. This isnt the most complicated, but what it delivers is unique and interesting. Again, easy to get into and excited about without it stealing the show.
If you want a change in your usual line-up, sub this guy in for your everyday.
