Light copper coloured and young whiskey. Nose: raisins, apples, peach, plums, menthol, sweet caramel goodness, toasted oak. Palate: thick vicious as a young whiskey, very forward with spice and black forest fruits in the background. Finish is medium long with lingering spiciness and oak. There is good balance but I wish for a more complex palate but nonetheless it's a well executed expression for a 3 year old Australian whiskey in Yalumba Barossa Shiraz Octave Barrels maturation.
