Tasting Notes by McGrain

A very complicated nose leads to a much more relaxed whisky that has more than enough going on in the finish to keep you coming back for more. My two criticisms are that it is a little weak up front - and far, far too easy to drink. You can drink a bottle of this without really knowing you've done it.

Nose: Fruit, Chocolate, Spice, Heather flowers, Smoked wood (Oak)

Mouth: More tender than the nose when it's introduced to the mouth but then it brings all of the above in a slightly soured fruity wave before a sweet note eases you into a short, warming finish.

After: A pleasing burn sweetened by honey.
