Glencairn, neat.
Color: Medium gold.
Aroma: Singular profile of cereals; with a swirl I get hints of vanilla and butterscotch. Somewhat underwhelming.
Taste: Slight burn up front that fades to oily at the back. Malty cereals with notes of brine. Reminds me of a lightly sweetened granola in almond milk.
Finish: Medium, resting along the entire palate. Still get the cereals with a touch of brine.
Overall: Satisfactory. A pleasant dram that I have enjoyed more then once on the back porch watching and listening to an evening rain. Not a complex whisky, but a comforting one that’s easy to reach for.
