Daily drinker. Not a complex dram but there is an art to such a mellow and refined dram. It smells sweet like honey and vanilla and it is sweet and lovely on the palate. Fresh and malty with a touch of cinnamon and vanilla from the casks. Balvenie in general does not overwhelm or blow you away, they kind of sneak up on you like a cat, stealthy and silent. I am really enjoying many of their expressions and this is a great, affordable whisky. Absolutely a classic and must try for any whisky lover.
