Light, sweet, grainy on the nose. Passion fruit, honey, light cereal notes.
Thin on the palate, simple vanilla notes - a hint of oak and faint fruitiness.
Short, unremarkable finish. Reminds me more of Cutty Sark or Teachers - and I’d probably prefer them too. It makes a competent Rusty Nail, but then again so do many others.
Not great, certainly no fun to drink on its own, and it's easily lost in a cocktail, although it does work if you enjoy less whiskey forward libations.
