Nose - Very bright, freshly dried hay, hint of sweet pineapple, sweet sugar cane syrup, hint of ethanol. Taste - Heavy rum influence, spicy sugarcane sweetness, hint of caramelized pineapple, lightly bitter, tastes a bit thin and like it's mostly grain versus malt. Finish - Lingering fruity spice, rum syrupy sweet, light bitter remains, sweet bitter like that of a char grilled pineapple. Score - 70/100 Final Thoughts - A bit on the fence about this one. It does taste a bit more complex than some of the Irish Whiskies I've had, but at the same time, it tastes almost too clean, like it's more of a flavored vodka than a rum finished whiskey. It's almost as if the primary spirit is a grain whiskey with little to no malt which I think would give a bit more backbone to the rum finish. I'm not sure how I feel about sipping this neat and at the same time I'm not sure what cocktails would benefit from this either.
