Nose - Very light, subtle nose, light sherry influence, faint lightly oaked riesling, green apples.
Taste - Very clean, light golden raisin sweetness, filtered apple cider, lightly bitter like that of apple/pear peels and cores, tiny hint of peppercorn spice.
Finish - Clean finish, lingering apple/golden raisin sweetness, faint generic "spice", sweet but dry oaked riesling.
Score - 80/100
Final Thoughts - Being a fan of sherry finished whiskies, I like this for what it is, pleasant nose, easy sipping, and not really any off-putting flavors. Flavors here are a bit subtle, so this might be best enjoyed neat or in a very simple cocktail with more subtle ingredients as to not overpower this.

This is one of my go to while partaking on a cigar. The light, sweetness complements the cigar very well.
