Review by Anonymous
- Color
- Amber
- Nose
- Sweet pears and prunes with a touch of sea air.
- Body
- Light to medium.
- Palate
- Deliciously sweet, slightly malty.
- Finish
- 10 to 15 seconds, dry and salty.
A terrific blend, easily as good as the cheaper single malts. Blows its price-range competitors such as JW Black out of the water.

Review by Eye-lah Guy
- Color
- Medium amber in the glass
- Nose
- Nose of orange peel and oak commands attention immediately
- Body
- Medium
- Palate
- Subtle grains are dashed by myriad of flavors: toffee spice, golden raisins, and finally subtle oak, but looking for a solid balance
- Finish
- Good & warm finish of oaky malt.
A good dram for a good price, and don't make the mistake of tasting just once; there tends to be much ado here, if only the balance would show itself.

- Dark amber
- Nose
- Sweet, spicy, and iodine smell. Very subtle and simple indeed.
- Body
- Light body.
- Palate
- Mint chocolate, dark fudge, slightly peaty, smoke, and ash. Not very intimidating and simple.
- Finish
- Nice, decent finish. Lingers on until your next dram.
A wonderful blended whisky for first time whisky drinkers.

- Color
- Gold
- Nose
- Alcohol and burnt wood with some spice.
- Body
- Gritty. Heavey
- Palate
- Rubbing alcohol with smokey spiced fruit and nuts.
- Finish
- Hot burn.
Not as good as JW Green. Alcohol burn too much overpowers the real flavor.

- Nose
- tight and boring
- Body
- thick, smooth and clean
- Palate
- Clean, apples, hazlenut. Much more interesting than the nose

I like this scotch. it really grows on you. The nose is really dull but this is still an easy drinking and speyside-like dram. Well made.
