The nose is eerily reminiscent of a Jack Daniels, with subtle touches of banana , vanilla and oak - quite bourbonesque. There's a hint of pears and cinnamon to the palate. The finish is where the experience disappoints, with a discordant bitterness that lingers a little longer than you wish it to. It's alright.

I will have to get my hands on that expression then. Thanks!
@Eòsaph I agree, not a lot here, a rather dull whisky, although I'd say it's a lot softer than bourbon, but it was aged in bourbon casks. Not sure if you live in Europe, but you can taste the European oak, you can taste that softness. Overall, Mackmyra Svensk Rok is far better, more interesting and tastier, I can really recommend it.
