I liked the 12 yr so wanted to try this low cost entry. Poured neat, nose is a little floral with light malt, fruit and unripe banana.Soft mouthfeel leads to palate of thin malt, mild green banana, oak and even some back door peat bringing mild coffee note. Hotter than proof would indicate but bottle mellows after some time. Finishes short to medium with drying oak and some slight bitterness with malt coffee note in background. This is a young scotch lacking body and depth but getting a single malt in the low 20's is hard to find. Its better than most blends without dreaded low grade(hangover inducing) grain alcohol. However if you are looking to get into single malt scotch this is not where to start. Its ok but would not repurchase........74/100......not bad as a light scotch to stretch your good stuff however Speyburn Bradan Orach is better for less
