Nose: Orange zest and caramel rolls off into a crisp fruity note (apple, white grape), followed by oak. Water added more fruity and earthy notes. Palate: Raisin, honey, and a slight apple/white grape. Somewhat oily. Water added more earthy notes (hay, barley). Finish: Immediate hot spice. Oak tannin. Water added more sherry notes on the finish and diminished the spice. An easy, if boring, drink for a nice price. Good for relaxing and not having to pay too much attention to the whisky. Despite being only 40%, a generous splash of water really helps with bringing out different notes.
