GSN’s Remarks: Good tight spicy nostril with an integrity of custom regardless of the mix of varied state whiskies. All of them work collectively in a harmonious triad. For a cask power, this solely wants a splash of water to make it approachable. The mouthfeel is excessive and light-weight, but additionally presents some rock stable low notes of wooden and char. Some baking spices, mild caramel and younger leather-based together with new tobacco are also on this system. General, we applaud the brand new labeling, and with this explicit BCS launch it’s a excellent entry into their each rising portfolio. GSN Score: A-
