Nose: Fruity, citrus mostly. Some caramel. Shortbread biscuits. Ethanol smell is very overpowering. Palate: Grassy and grainy. Very plain and not much coming through. Some lemon notes not doing any favors. Finish: Brief-medium. Alcohol burn on the way down. Sour aftertaste but not a total turnoff. Overall Thoughts: Definitely glad I only got the $1.99 sample bottle. Very much a budget whiskey and a mixer at best. The packaging would let you believe it’s a gentle giant but I found it a bit too strong. The aroma seems sweet off the bat but once it breathes a bit it just smells of hand sanitizer.
