People turn their nose up at this because of the gimmicky bottle, but, there’s actually a very tasty whisky inside. It’s a sweet, slightly smoky, but most importantly a very approachable drinker. There’s a vanilla toasted smoothness to this. Is it exceptional? No...but would I blind taste this and hide the bottle, to try to impress some snobs, you betcha. Buy one, and enjoy it, it’s worth the freight
