Personally I’m not a fan of the more fruity scotch whiskeys. I like the Glemorangie approach where it’s more neatly blended into the flavor profile, but here it’s like being slapped in the face with a sour apple and it reminds me of Halloween candy binges on sour apple Jolly Ranchers gone horribly wrong. Definitely not a scotch that I would voluntarily select, but drinkable with an ice cube.
