    This whisky is hard to get to like. I tried, not happen. The nose was fruity like apples and lemons. The taste was wooden tannic with a short uneventful finish.

    The 10 year old is a nice malt, that is well priced (especially in the USA, where I know it costs as low as $20…) but is not really popular where I come from. It’s pretty basic and nice for that price,… read more

    Nose: I'm having this on my sunny balcony with an ice cube and the nose matches this weather perfectly: lightly floral with orchard fruit, especially pear and green apple. Very malty and fresh. Taste… read more

    Nose: Speyside sweetness and fruitiness. There is a lot of honey and pear in it. I could keep on nosing for hours. Taste: Sweet and fruity (lemon?) on the palate, not much body. Hints of smoke, but very… read more

    Decent whisky. It was a good value at $15. Gentle fruitiness in the aroma. Buttery. Heather, bananas, apricots. A bit sweet and simple but pleasant enough.
