Nirasaki Blended Japanese Whisky

Nose - Clean apples/pears, fresh cut wood, citrusy pine Taste - Apples, pears, thin, very clean artificial syrup sweetness, generic sugary grain flavor Finish - Short, slightly bitter, a wisp of apple with a bitter core/stem/seeds Score - 71/100 Final Thoughts - This wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. It seemed ideal for highballs with a squeeze of yuzu or lemon. Nothing particularly off-putting except for the faint bitter note at the end. It felt very generic and light, almost like a grain spirit without being one. It had clean grain sweetness but just enough body to indicate it wasn't solely grain. Would I drink it if offered? - Perhaps Would I specifically order it? - No Would I buy a bottle? - No NOTE - All reviews are done without factoring in price.

Copper color. On the nose, some cherry, nut, and almond notes. On the palate, it's light with more nut, cherry, earth, and vanilla oak. A good value.

Notes of nuts. Heavy.

Mediocre at best
