Nose: very malty, slight hints of apple, oak, vanilla, caramel Palate: butterscotch and caramel cream, bready and malty. Not complex but very pleasant Finish: a bit oaky, very slight bitterness, spice, hint of honey and shortbread cookies. This is not a complex whiskey, and its probably not the best single malt, but it is very friendly and very pleasant to sip. It doesn’t have much of the “funk” that show up in a lot of single malts.
