Long, spiced nose with smoke on the tail.

I bought this today because the options were limited. I bought it with some trepidation if I'm honest. I think it might be better now than it was. I seem to have some dredged-up memories of turps from decades ago, but this is definitely drinkable. There's even been some effort by (or permission given to) the blender to hint at a "house style". I like the mouthfeel, it's a nice colour and while there is a touch more harshness from the grain than I would like, there is also a touch more quality malt than I expected. Would I have bought a Dewar's or Jameson if that had been an option? Yes. And a bottle of Baillie Nicole Jarvie from 20 years ago would put it to shame! But honestly, it's no longer a con. Just a bit overpriced.
Not as bad as I remember this blend from years ago. But bad. Definitely dry end, alkoholic feel. Not great. There are positives. Barley feel and some sweetness to it. Some fruits and stuff. I was looking for any smoke but did not found. Add some water to smooth it a bit. Realy get this aired and left for some time to drop some of the heavy spirit notes go away. For mixing Id go for something with more vailla. I dont do drinks so opinion is for flat. This is totally entry level stuff. I am sure you can get better drum for the money. I see no reason to but this ;) If johny, get the black one. Both black and double black had better times but still are decent and can be called a whisky. Alright. This is avilable everywere and cheap. Here you have all the benefits.
My least favorite whiskey/scotch. It tastes like a mixture of leather and oak to me. After seeing “smoke” in another review I see that in there too. My boss gave this to me for Christmas and I gave it away.
Standard disinfectant style blend, one for mixing and novices.
Very rough, not enjoyable at all. I will normally find the positive in (almost) any whisky but I really didn't think much of this one.
