Tastes like a mature green apple Jolly Rancher. I keep expecting to pick out peat in this, but I don't ever find it. Update: coming back to this after having American whiskies almost exclusively for the last several months, I'm now picking up a smidge of peat, more on the nose than palate. Apple still there, orange, and milk chocolate on the nose. The palate is full of honey, apple, light sweetness.
