Maybe this was a victim of unrealistic high expectations from reviews but I came away disappointed... which is rare for me when it comes to whiskey. The rum influence overtakes everything!!! [sad face]. Maybe some time in the future, some oxidation might do it some good but I’m not holding out much hope. Sucks I bought an extra bottle before I tried it [sadder face] Best case scenario for me at this point is using a tiny splash in my growing infinity bottle(s).
UPDATE (2020): Bottle kill edition. Some oxidation did help in rounding out the cloying edges from the overwhelming rum influence, which made it a bit more drinkable. Also worked decently well in my DIY home blends. Still, it didn’t really change my overall score for this dram. Any possible improvements were so negligible as to register in my taste Richter scale to move the needle. Cheers!
