Bagpiper Superior Whisky had a few things going for it. I liked the warm oak. The only drawback was that it felt thinner than I expected. Good enough to revisit, especially with the right serve.

This whisky had a few things going for it. The light smoke came through clearly, and nutty edge kept the sip interesting. It was gone faster than I expected, which says enough.
warm - smoothI had a small pour of Bagpiper Superior Whisky and let it open up. There were flashes of gentle spice, but it felt thinner than I expected. Perfectly drinkable, just not something I'd seek out.
