Flaviar bottle 04/2022. Color is a lighter yellow amber, but the nose is surprisingly complex and caramel-oak. Wow! As someone who loves bourbon and normally hates Irish whisky this one is as advertised- a nice cross-over/gateway! The barley makes it quite smooth, and there is plenty of caramel and vanilla to cover up the taste I normally don’t like. The flavor is simple, though, and doesn’t really develop. Perhaps some butterscotch, but a lot of roasted nuts.
