Not trying to be malicious here, but this whisky has literally no redeeming qualities.
It drinks fairly hot at only 40% abv which means it is very young, probably the minimum 2 years of aging to qualify as whisky.
The nose presents as a mixture of rubbing alcohol and faint smoke. There is an astringent malty flavour on the palate and very little else, maybe a hint of lemon pith? It shows no evolution or complexity whatsoever as you hold it in your mouth trying in vain to find even a hint of something pleasant.
If you enjoy drinking cheap vodka straight, this is your whisky
