Nose: Kicks off with loads of vanilla, toffee and honey. Poached pears, maple syrup, fresh cut timber. Certainly not a shy nose and a lot of what I would expect from a youngish whisky matured in 1st fill bourbon barrels.
Palate: Big vanilla, poached pears, virgin olive oil, sawdust. Almond flakes, honey, apple sauce, salt and some peppery heat. Like the nose, pretty straight forward. Basically says, this is all I am, like it or lump it.
Finish: Good length on vanilla, honey, pears, apple sauce and sawdust.
Last Word: Quality of the distillation is not in question but as per my notes, not a complex whisky.
Rating: 81/100
