Auchentoshan 12 Year Old

Enjoyed this with some new friends at a little bookstore and bar. Cozy place.

Nose: Vibrant flowers, honey and citrus.

Palate: One word, honeysuckle. If you were fortunate enough as a kid to find some wild honeysuckle and you knew how to get the dew out and drink it, then your childhood was at least a partial success. And that's basically all I get here. Honeysuckle and more floral notes.

Finish: Short and crisp with some lingering sweetness.

Overall: This goes down easily. Triple distilled and only 40%abv makes this crisp and easy to down. Reminds me of some Irish whiskies the way it drinks. The 5 of us finished the remaining half of the 700ml bottle. It's not a whisky to sit down and over analyze. It's a good entry level drink, it's simple and refreshing and not offensive in the least. Get some friends on a spring or summer day and just drink this.
