Tasting Notes
Nose
I really enjoyed the nose on this whisky. It smells sweet and fruity, reminiscent of the lowland Scotch that it is, having been distilled in Glasgow. Theres nothing particularly complex about it, but its pleasant and inviting. Think poached pears with chocolate drizzled on top.
Palate
The straightforward, uncomplicated, sweet, and fruity tendencies we found in the nose continue in the mouth. This is an easy-going and sweet whisky, but disappears quickly. Theres no finish to speak of at all. A hint of spice tempers the sugary, fruity flavors. I tasted dark chocolate, tangy citrus, cloves, fruitcake, pecans, and lightly buttered toast.
