Tasting Notes by Bobbo342

My first review and still fairly new at Single Malts and the like.

Nose: Apples is the first thing that comes to the nose. A warm aroma of pear as well with a second sniff.

Palate: At first sip an instant of sweetness followed by a slight bitterness (not overwhelming). I also get the flavor of smokey apples and an oakyness. If I would to give it a one word description; Fruity.

Finish: Warm, sweet-oak, smooth

Overall: Not a bad choice for less than $45.
