Have looked at the bottom shelf scotch and wondered if any of it was drinkable or is it like wretched Canadian whisky. They only seem to come in giant 1.75 bottles which is a big commitment if its garbage. Luckily this was available in 50ml size so I figured lets spin the wheel. Poured neat, decent legs and hey its 86.8 pf so there's that. Nose is weak with ethanol, a wisp of distant fruit and lack of malt. Better than expected mouth feel leads to palate of generic light sweetness and malt with oaky char. Has grain harshness but isn't too bad. Finishes with quick grainy alcohol and char. Overall not a lot of flavor or much of an experience but better than cheap Canadian and might work as a mixer. I will not be buying a handle of this or any other bottom barrel options ...........57/100........its drinkable I just don't wanna be the one doin it
