Color: Florescent Gold

Nose: Strong honey and vanilla notes. Heather, gentle fruits, grape, pine wood, and pepper.

Finish: Warm and lingering, with notes of honeycomb, pudding, caramel, and butterscotch

Thoughts: Sweet and warm, so far all of the grain whiskies I have had, I’ve enjoyed (although I’m not seeking out the lower end ones). I would highly recommend to fans of bourbon looking to make their way over to scotch.
