— Herbs and brown sugar on the nose, but very salty on the pallet. Decent honey aftertaste. Very nice and smooth. Awesome and very interesting whiskey

— Very smooth, yet more of a peety taste rivaling the best of scotches

Michael,
I did not like this one at all. Very little flavor other than the very strong flavor of alcohol. The finish was very grainy and went down rough. I would not recommend this one if you prefer a smoother finish and more flavor.

Mark,
Darker, Smokey, a bit acidic
Daniel,
Sweet, smoke, molasses, apple, leather. This one is a little too sweet for my taste, so not my favorite. Still good though....I liked it better with ice
