- Body
- smooth but strong bitter presents, thick eager to download flavor to your brain. delightful.
- Palate
- see nose
- Finish
- goes down craving for more. chewing really opens up this desert of a dram. big molasses and sugar in the raw aftertaste.
I can tell you with certainty this is one of the best all around blends. The price is so cheap you cant believe the deal. At times the palate reminds me of Lagavulin aged quality. Huge flavor. always have it in your cabinet for an everyday dram.

- inviting, vanilla, bakery drafts,lumber yards promising...
- Body
- smooth tolerable low in proof
- Palate
- Instant metallic flavor at the start, distorting surrounding flavors of vanilla, pastry, smoke, faint peat, drywall dust
- Finish
- quick decay of mild aftertaste, pleasant.
Just avoid. If it wasn't for the blast of canned food tin at the start, it would be a dependable cabinet grabber. The best blends you can get is Ballentines Finest and Johnny Walker Black. well priced to.
