This won whisky of the year for a reason back in 2016 and for the price is an excellent bottle to regularly have in your collection. On the nose: Sweetness, Perfect amount of Rye, and subtle barrel. Overall classy depth. On the pallet: Sip a bit and let this roll over and under the back of your tongue (at room temperature) several times while inhaling a bit of breath in between. Rich and full sweetness tempered by Rye and oak mix together create a blissful experience that continues to get better as your glass gets lower over the course of the entire experience. This is best enjoyed neat at room temperature.
