All tasting notes
with brown sugar. 
toasted almonds 
,
christmas spices including 
. overrall very well balanced. 
notes as well....sitting in glass longer it the nose is "thickening" so to speak, becoming more viscous and heavy. Taste:

Comment: Real good stuff! There's a lot going on here, very well balanced. The baked apple notes combine with the spices and the balance of casks, all comes together to create something i honestly wasn't ready for! I found myself "chewing" this whisky too, not something i do unless a whisky has a lot of heft and character to it's body.
