- Amber
- Nose
- Fairly sweet, somewhat flowery, mellow
- Body
- Fairly light
- Palate
- Starts off fairly sweet, just a bit smokey.
- Finish
- Fairly quick finish, smooth and even but fades too quickly.
I'm fairly a newcomer to the single malts, having previously been (and still) partial to Jameson. This is quite pleasant though, but not one I'm likely to repeat. The 15 is notably more interesting and worthy of repeated visits.
