Accomplishes what it sets out to do. Tasty, especially mixed. Don't head in to it expecting a serious whiskey. Come on, it's 70 proof and flavored, don't be such a try-hard looking for 'notes of toasted almonds on a crisp September afternoon' or whatever. That's clearly not the point here. It's sweet and fruity, and you can taste a tiny bit of whiskey shining through. Throw it in a mixed drink and head out to the pool. A little on the pricey side give it was a special release, but I'd say it's worth it for the novelty and taste.
