"Deep golden amber color. Buttery caramel and golden raisin aromas. A soft entry leads to a dryish light-to-medium of honeyed grain and bread dough flavors with a delicate peppery slate accented fade."

"Pure amber color. Buttered toast and grain, buckwheat honey, and mossy stone aromas. A silky entry leads to a dryish medium body of honey buttered wheat toast, roasted nuts, dried banana, and peppery spice. Finishes with a lingering toffee, wet stone, and spice fade. A rock solid blend."

"The nosing finds dry grainy notes with background scents of dried flowers and parchment, and deeper fragrances of light toffee, almond paste and yellow fruit. Entry is oily, buttery and semisweet; the whisky dazzles at midpalate with layered flavors of brown butter, cooking oil, barley malt and oatmeal cookie underpinned by the single malt foundation. Concludes smoky, satiny and ultra-sophisticated." 90-95 pts.

"Pale golden yellow color. Honeyed toast, spice, and caramelized nut aromas follow through of a soft entry to a dry-yet-fruity light-to-medium body with a tongue warming white pepper and wet stone fade."

"Opening aroma is intensely grainy and cracker-like, with background notes of flowers and pine; aeration brings out the grain spirit in uncomplicated scents of pine, flax and beeswax. Entry is pleasantly sweet like caramel (but not too sweet); the midpalate adds sweet flavors of honey, pipe tobacco and tar. Ends nicely sweet and grainy." Best Buy. 85-89 pts.

"Brilliant golden amber color. Roasted nut, caramel, dried heather, and delicate sherried oak aromas follow through to a very round, smooth and dry medium body of dry caramel, delicate peat, and nut shell flavors. Finishes with nicely warming toffee and mellow white pepper fade with a touch of river stones. A very solid and mild blended Scotch."
