Oh my - this is good stuff. The whisky starts with a very pleasing nose. I continued to swish the dram around and take succeeding sniffs for several minutes before actually tasting. Very pleasing aromas that remind me of baking spices and rye bread. The flavour was absolutely delicious - full, but also very clean, refined, and balanced. If you like the G&W Four-Grain offering, you'll LOVE this whisky. The manager at the LCBO told me that he considered it the best whisky he ever had. I think it's hard for any drink to live up to that hype, but this whisky is certainly in that conversation for me.
