Nose: a rich, deep sweetness, with dried fruits, pear, apricot, maraschino cherry, a decadent, bready fruitcake, honey, candied pecans, and lightly toasted cereal. Palate: dried fruits, golden and dark raisins, honey. It has good body with a solid, oily coating that leads very smoothly into the finish. The finish is pleasant with a hint of floral/grassy notes, baking spices, medium peppery barrel spices, and a touch of ashiness. This absolutely surpasses its price point. A certain retailer hit a grand slam with this one. If you have one of their stores near you, you must try this. It's certainly worth the risk.

Smells of white blossoms, banana bread, honey, Medjool dates, hay, vanilla, and cinnamon. A round, silky texture. The palate reveals more hay, vanilla, honey, white flowers, and cinnamon, enhanced by lemon zest and a subtle medicinal quality. A lasting finish with exceptional smoothness. 4.25/5.00 – Excellent (neat)
Nose: Honey, Sherry, honeydew Palate: Identical to the nose Finish: Sweet spice that lingers In my opinion, the best value single malt. Excellent flavor, and at 92 proof, it drinks much better than its price suggests. Definitely worth buying.
