Critic reviews and blind-tasting competition results for this bottle.
Smells sweet, caramel and toffee, with some alcohol heat and a slight medicinal twang. … not particularly deep or complex, but not hot or flawed either … Not bad at all for a mixing whisky.
Subtle smoky aromas lead to a smooth, sweet palate with a lingering, clean, lightly salted finish.
Fragrant floral nose with hints of gentian; chocolate orange and coffee flavours. Developing graininess.
The opening aroma is a touch herbal, and properly grainy … The palate entry is creamy at first, and then turns a little hard-edged in the acidity department … Concludes flat, very lean and acidic, but drinkable.

Flavor scores are our estimates. A flavor scores higher when more critics mention it and when they describe it more strongly, so no single review sets the result. They are not a rating from any publication.
