Alva Gilliam 3.3

Smell: Surprisingly sugary. Frosted sugar cookie, baking spices, wood. Taste: Directly on the palate is butter cookies, then it becomes a smooth wood, and concludes with spices that remain for a considerable duration.

Paola Edge 4.0

Begins gently, with a swift spice note, followed by a smooth honey finish. The aroma features sweet summer scents, honeysuckle, and golden fruit. Very well-balanced on the palate.

Sharlene Crockett 2.0

Given the current market, there's a reason this is still available. Do not spend your money on Templeton.

Bruno Traylor 4.0

Pale golden color, very smooth, rated 4.5, would repurchase! Rays 9/2017

Pete Mclean 2.0

A realm of whiskey from Binny's.
