*Score* 84 *Color* Honey Gold. *Nose* Honey, pronounced vanilla notes, lingering tingle of alcohol without the burn. *Palate* Thin, clear. *Finish* Short finish, flirting with floral that flutters away with the first sip. *Notes* A gentle scotch, this is like a set of training wheels. Although you compromise for a lack of complexity. Even the burn down your throat isn’t harsh. A flat coating of butterscotch on the center of the tongue with a somewhat spicy tone coming on at the end. Overall, a rather neutral expression that doesn’t seem to want to pick a side. For example, it’s fruity with nondescript fruits. It’s a good gift scotch – classy enough to impress a non-expert while also not forcing on them something too smoky or peaty. At the same time, a connoisseur would appreciate the effort.
