    Warm and sweet with baking spices, baked green apples and vanilla; it turns richer and more complex with air, while the palate is rich, oily and fruity.

This Yellow Spot is easy on the nose with soft scents of dried fruit and a hard to specify 'sweetness'. Not exactly honeysuckle or vanilla but not too far off…

Lost power so the only thing worth doing is trying another bottle I picked up. This definitely has your more typical peat scotch flavor with a lot of lingering…

Not sure how I feel. I'll give it a second go in a few days. It's got a pretty intense flavor right off the bat, but it doesn't linger.

The reviewer finds sour, bitter flavors of rotten fruit, cloying perfume, and solvent-like spirit, calling it truly noxious.

This is a delicious pour. This pour is darker and has a redder hue than most Irish whiskeys. Up front, from the first pour, the ethanol coming off of it is…

A pleasant Canadian whisky with caramel, cinnamon, vanilla and pepper, though its thin palate and modest complexity keep it from fully matching the nose.

Definitely prefer the 15 over the 20. This one has a lot of bite, even at nearly 10% lower abv.

Hard to describe but so much different than the classic. Still similar for flavor profile but surprisingly mellow for a single cask. Very very enjoyable!

“Honey in the front, tar in the back” - Gavin The 25 really brings out the flavors. Unlike a lot of more matured whisky it’s not mellowed out and packs a bigger…

Rich and fruit-forward, with sherry, raisins, dates, honey and malt; the reviewer praises its remarkable development and would gladly buy it again.
