Nose: light, a little touch of alcohol upfront but manageable, hint of a simple malted grain note somewhat like granola, touch of honey, butterscotch, a little fruitiness, hint of vanilla, maybes a lemon or orange zest note, faint ghostly hint of sea salt air and peat but is a little hard to find. Taste: light and very easy going, honey, fruit, touch of creaminess, ashy peat smoke but not strong and overpowering, some barrel spices, finish is medium leaning more on the shorter side. For the price, this is honestly very good. If the noise and flavors were a little stronger, this would be a really decent sleeper scotch. Give it a try, it’s worth a look for under $20.
