Pale gold colour coats the glass as you swirl and savour the aroma.
Nose: apples, ripe Galia melon, vanilla and citrus
Palate: sweet melon followed by crisp green apple and zesty lemon, warming cinnamon and ginger follows.
Finish: spicy with mouth drying oak cleaned up by another burst of lemon which makes the mouth water.
Added a little water 5ml to 50ml, to second pour after having the first neat and I found it gave a more spicy palate and finish, the haze in the liquid was expected but had no adverse effect on the taste.
This is really good stuff so much more to it than my usual bourbon fare.
Kudos to all you guys who have submitted so many reviews I have limited whisky experience but have used this site too gauge what I might like, so far so good.
Now what to try next that I have not had before, unopened on the shelf are HP12, A'bunadh batch 50, Yamazaki Distillers or the mighty Bookers. All bought on the back of your reviews so hoping for good things.
