My Tasting Note: Nose: sawdust from a High School woodshop and honeycomb emerge first from the subtle nose; as it warms it becomes very cereal reminding me of Kellogg's Vector and perhaps Quaker Harvest Crunch; dried apples show later; Palate: dry and oaky the palate shows some dried fruits, especially apple, and some soft sweet spice for good measure; greener than I'd expect for a whisky of this age it is youthful with a touch of barley, but pleasantly so; Finish: clean, soft and smooth with more toasted oak and dried apple.
