Open 2 months Nose - Butterscotch, toffee, sweet cereal grain and malt, French toast, light honey, pear, green apple, and light ethanol. Palate - Molasses, toffee, caramel, milk chocolate, vanilla, crème brulee, butter cream, baking spices, and sweet oak. Finish is medium with drier oak tannins, clove, allspice, rye bread, cocoa, and light ethanol. This is a really great Scotch for the money. Compared to a lot of 14Y and 15Y Scotches on the market, this is markedly cheaper and 86 proof to boot. It has all of the classic single malt flavors mixed with sweet and spicy bourbon notes. I bet this would be phenomenal at cask strength.
