Fruity. Like apple/pineapple juice from concentrate. Vanilla
Taste:




Sweet and fruity. Candied pineapple. Creamy with peppery spice.
Finish:


Short to medium, fruity with some oak showing through. Finishes slightly sour.
Comment:
I picked this up in a half bottle format just to try. I think this is a good standard release and at a fair price. It lacks a bit of intensity on the palate for my tastes and I found the finish a little disappointing. I'd definitely say it was a good beginner's malt though, it's quite approachable and readily available.

Fruity, apples, pears.
Taste: sweat but spicy, apples pears, flat taste
Finish: very short, a little oaky
Comment:
This whisky is delicate and flat. Not to much taste, alcohol not well hidden. Two good things I can find there is oak aftertaste which I love and oiliness, but this oilness don't bring too much taste with it. Can be for begginers but I would say for very begginers.
