Sample provided by @PBMichiganWolverine. Thanks a bunch! Sample rating: Average +0 I.e. same rating as Glenfiddich 12. For 40 USD, this is 2.5 / 5 stars (not horrible; not worth it). It’s Irish, so I get potatoes. A terroir thing, right? There’s fruitiness, but it’s very young. Like Pruno, if you’ve been to prison… or maybe Pseudomonas aeruginosa, if you’ve taken microbiology. Like freshly fermented apple sauce. The peat is medicinal, like a young Laproaig. A very young one. I don’t mind the nose at all. The palate has some citrus, soot, salt. Like a young Caol Ila. A very young one. Did I mention this is a young one? The finish betrays this whiskey’s immaturity. Any deeper or interesting flavors just abruptly fall off, and you are left with cardboard and ethanol. Or, if you really concentrate: potatoes, vodka, and cigarettes. I.e. Breakfast for champions.
