I had a small pour of this whisky and let it open up. The aroma hinted at warm oak; in the glass, the sweetness felt flat. The balance felt off from start to finish.

Took my time with Bushmills with a few drops of water. I liked the dry, tidy finish. The only drawback was that the alcohol stood out too much. Not perfect, but it worked well for me.
warm - dry - fruityI mostly tried this one as part of a simple serve. Warm oak showed up early, while rounded mouthfeel carried through the finish. I'd happily choose it again.
