Finally got my hands on a bottle for my collection. My honest opinion is that it is good but not great. I feel like this may be over-hyped due to the name and difficulty to find. The first time I tried it I didn’t write a review because I thought I was missing something.
Second time around and I figured I would share my opinion. The flavors are there and I have to agree with other reviews as far as what notes they get but I feel like they are all muted by the heat and I really have to search for them. I’ve tried it both neat and with water added in a glencairn and tried letting it rest and feel it just missed the mark for me. I usually prefer barrel/cask strengths so I am a bit disappointed but who knows maybe the 3rd try will be the charm.
