Nose: rich deep flavors, oakiness that I love. Fruit, raisins and malt in the breakground. Great start to the pour. Palate: Right off the bat i get roasted nuts like cashews and a bit a savory notes. Finishin: Is a little muted, but i get some maraschino cherries and plum. This is a really surprising scotch because i was expecting to get strong sherry influences like the other kirkland speyside scotches if had in the past, but for me, this whisky really falls in the more savory side. The nose is the best part of the experience.
