John Gagnon 4.5

Nose - Deep but not heavy caramel, lemon custard, whisper of sweet wine aged in barrels, honey, concentrated apple juice Taste - Tart green apples, flower honey, caramel candy, faint hay?, sweet caramel, viscous & full mouthfeel, light dried stone fruit sweetness Finish - Lingering, mild oak & spice, deep warm sweetness, opulent sweet leather Score - 93/100 Final Thoughts - Truly incredible. From the aroma, even with the modest proof, it was evident this was a well-matured Scotch. Exceptionally well-rounded from beginning to end and packed with taste despite the lower alcohol content. Leans a little lighter, but has lovely notes of rich caramel and toffee to push it toward the richer end rather than purely light & floral. Excellent harmony of tastes and a superb drink. Would I drink it if offered? - Yes Would I specifically order it? - Yes Would I buy a bottle? - Yes
