Tasted neat from a grappa copita after several minutes rest. This is a "sample" from DTC service received as a gift. The nose is grassy, with notes of burnt caramel, honey and fresh sawn wood. All togerher this presents a very faint and delicate nose. The flavor is richer than the aroma. Brach's butterscotch hard candy, cedar wood, and slight menthol. The finish is short and drying. Overall a nice malt whiskey. A bit thin and not particularly complex but well balanced and satisfying.
