Flaviar advent calendar day #16 forgot to take a picture, but the color on this was deep bright Amber. I don't think I've seen a whiskey this color before, it looked unnatural, though it does not taste that way!
Nose: cinnamon, clove, orange zest, white pepper, caramel, and oak. The slightest hint of pot still shortbread
Palate: sweet. Honey, grain whiskey, butterscotch. It is a tiny bit thin at parts. Very mild oak and a bit of stewed apple. A touch of milk chocolate? Strong vanilla throughout. Cinnamon and wood spice as it transitions to finish
Finish: woody. A hint of malt, a bit of metallic astringency, slight honey.
