Nose is good but not very strong could be due to how low the bottle was not sure. And had a pour of BT before this tasting could have effected it. But not a bad nose. Very similar to BT. Now on to the taste. Has the softness of BT with the small bite of EH Taylor that we love. Very tasty the 4 grain is good. Worth the dollar prolly not. If it was at retail it is 100% worth a very good taste!
