The initial floral profile hits your tongue smoothly, with little heat throughout the taste. I like that part. It’s what I look for in a good scotch. The flavor transitions pleasantly into a sweet caramel flavor with hints of citrus. Enjoying the complexity so far. BUT THEN... on the backend of every sip, this whisky runs the risk of turning my stomach with a mad rush of syrupy sweetness, like poorly made sweet tea. Combine this with the oily mouthfeel that I get from start to finish and we have a thoroughly unpleasant scotch. I can say this: I have not found a whisky this complex yet that was also this cheap. So perhaps there’s an audience out there for this little guy. But if you’ve already got good scotches on your shelf, I can see absolutely no reason to buy this whisky. And BONUS crappiness: if you burp while tasting this whisky, your burp feels oily and sickeningly sweet. Awesome.
