Citrusy nose -- oranges, lemons -- and whole wheat bread.  In the mouth, I say "yum," but not in a big way... the whole taste is rather indistinct.  Light honey.  Oaky but still sweet finish, long, with pumpernickel in the tails.  This doesn't really taste in any way spectacular, just kinda plain and familiar, sweet and refined.  Difficult to hate, difficult to love... I think this would appeal to people with money to burn who don't truly like the flavors of scotch whisky.  Yes it's pleasant, but it's basically just a very good "ehh" whisky.
