4I tried the bottle twice before settling on a rating. I liked the soft fruit. The only drawback was that the smoke covered everything else. Still a good pick and one I'd have again.

1Even after letting it sit for a few minutes, it felt thinner than I expected. Then the alcohol stood out too much. I tried to make it work, but I wouldn't pick it again.

5Took my time with this whisky over one large cube. I liked the warm oak; the nutty edge made it feel complete rather than heavy. I'd happily choose it again.
