Member Ratings and Notes

Sku

Nose: light malt and fruit, some white wine notes.
Palate: Syrupy and malty with a bit of an alcohol flavored tinge, which is surprising for its abv. It's not that it's hot but that there is a sort of pure ethanol flavor to it.
Finish: Alcohol fumes and not much else and not for very long.

Sometimes you taste a closed distillery whisky and say, my God, what were they thinking when they closed this place? With this one, not so much.

Andy

n: Delicagte and nice. Honeysuckle.

p: Slightly floral. Gentle and simple but leaves fast (no finish)
