I’m not sure which year this was since I had a dram at a local bar I’ve been going to for years but it was unbelievable. The ABV doesn’t even hit you hard. It’s so refined. Chocolate cola is immediate followed by some sweet caramel and muddled grains. The rye notes you expect only hit you in the initial way down from the palate. The finish was tremendously long. Unbelievable. A top 5 whisky for me so far. 100/100. It’s hard to knock it. I even kept the glass by my side for a half hour and the notes changed across that course of time in so many ways. I was lucky enough to grab a shot for $36. What a bargain but I’d willingly pay a LOT more a shot for this. And the price of the bottle is easily worth it. 100/100
