Member Ratings and Notes

Adam

Sweet and woody and spicy and rich and good. Finishes slightly rough and hot, and as the glass is finished this becomes a problem. Yet this whisky continues to surprise as you drink it. Add a few drops of water.

Bob

Nose is subtle. Really soapy taste, and medicinal. Finish comes in waves and changes. Better with water.

Develops from soft to bold. Lasting finish.

Andy

Nice deviation -- mint and licorice.

SES

Odd and unexpected nose. Palate is velvety, with spice and ginger.

Chris

Pure alcohol, maybe a 50/50 mix of Isopropyl and sterno, stored in musty wood.

Mike

This was a great find. Creamy with lemon zest. Alcohol is strong, but mixes with the other flavors well. Even after a night of tasting this held up.
