Jernique
Jernique,
Great tasting scotch. Sweet and vanilla notes at the beginning and spicy, tabasco notes at the end. Very good sipper. Drink neat at first then and an ice cube on the second. Very smooth in bothering cases but you just open up your palate with cube.
 
Tom
Tom,
extremely smooth & easy to drink. mildly sweet with honey and vanilla notes giving way to tobacco, spice & pepper
 
Bob
Bob,
Love this scotch, was purchased based on the tasting notes in the newsletter. As a tequilaphile, this is right up there in the upper tier of liquids one should have on hand! The lamb spleen eschebesche notes complete the fine balance on this scotch.
 
Scott

Really great flavor. Love the tobacco & spicier taste mixed with the slight sweetness that dominates the nose.
