Scott,
The flavor is there but perhaps overpowered by smoke.

Brooks,
Solid whiskey a bit outside my usual flavor profile

WOW! You better like it peaty and smokey!
 
Brian
Brian,
Bit too much smoke for my liking.

Loved it! Nice and smooth for a Japanese whisky
 
Tony
Tony,
A little bit of an upfront bite but overall a very smooth whiskey. Definitely worth having around.
 
Mathew
Mathew,
Medicinal. Overpowering spicy oakiness. Like a Japanese Johnnie Walker Red. Maybe it would be better in a cocktail?
 
Michael
Michael,
I tasted buttery notes on the front with a smooth taste of fruit and a fine finish - this is worth a bottle.
 
Chad
Chad,
Tastes very smoky. Took too long to get to the other flavors. I probably won’t drink it again. It’s not horrible, just not my type.
 
Grant
Grant,
Loved trying a new Japanese whiskey. Very smoky finish but overall very drinkable
 
Daniela
Daniela,
Very intense whisky with a Woody finish.

Adam,
So gooooood
 
Barry
Barry,
Great blend of peat and fruit... nice sweet up front without any dishonorable back end. Very good overall
 
Antti
Antti,
It is a very good, intense, 12 year old Japanese blended whisky, with a gentle death.
 
Richard
Richard,
Sweet, spun sugar, vanilla, really quite good
 
Vic
Vic,
Nice scotch! Usually not big on scotch but this was a refreshing surprise. Definitely a good choice to fill out your bar.
 
Juan
Juan,
Too peaty for my taste. Would not purchase for my bar.
 
Vicky
Vicky,
Distinctly fresh with sharp high notes and a hint of peat. A good way to change things up and wake up the taste buds.
 
Katherine
Katherine,
More peaty than smokey to me. If you like a bit of peat, this will be a favorite.
 
Joseph
Joseph,
Nice light smokiness
 
Logan
Logan,
I was expecting loads of smoke, and although it does come through as a key player, it is much more balanced than I was expecting. A great choice for someone that likes the smokiness, but also doesn't want to get punched in the face by it.
 
Deja
Deja,
Very good! Just the right amount of smoky and sweet.
