Nose

Sweet and creamy, fruity (ripe yellow apples, peaches), honey, toffee, citrus notes

Palate

Malty, slightly bitter and oaky, oat cookies, porridge, salty liquorice notes

Finish

Medium-long, oaky, drying, malty and slightly bitter

Conclusion

Decent whisky, with very nice light and balanced nose. However, the taste didn’t meet the expectations (at least mine). It’s very malty and the balance is shifted to the oak side with the distinct bitterness. The aftertaste is also oaky and dry without any complexity. Well, from a whisky of the US legal drinking age (i.e. 21 years) you are expecting much more, especially from its price close to 150 euros
