Not sure how i feel about this one. One of the strangest tasting whiskys I've ever tasted. To me it has two distinct notes, which are pepper and vanilla. STRONG vanilla. More than I've ever tasted in a whisky before. I gave it a 3 because sometimes I really enjoy it and other times its just too different and overly sweet on the nose. That being said I think it's really great to have the option of a whisky that tastes like this. It adds to the growing number of completely unique and high quality Canadian spirits.
