This is a very good dram, but at the beginning it was a little strong, which surprised me for a 40%ABV. The nose was sweet with fruit flavors like orange l, maybe pineapple, but I let it rest. After 10-15 minutes the profile was different, more apricot and peaches, it reminded me of Bushmills 16. The palate was smoother and the finish was succulent, rich and more fruity. Overall, this is a good drink, and better if you let it breathe, but I think that a good alternative, and maybe better value, is Bushmills 16. I am looking for a Red Spot, which I think it’s 15, to compare them to both.
