3I had mixed expectations for this whisky. The gentle spice was pleasant, but the alcohol stood out too much. Perfectly drinkable, just not something I'd seek out.

5I had a small pour of this whisky and let it open up. The balance between mellow sweetness and nutty edge was what won me over. One of the more enjoyable options I've tried in this category.

4Used Famous Grouse with a few drops of water. The vanilla note was enjoyable and rounded mouthfeel gave it enough character, although it felt thinner than I expected. Good enough to revisit, especially with the right serve.
