Bottling Type
Taster
Nose: Understated and buttery. There's vanilla slice/custard, soft silky fruits, some nuttiness.
Palate: That buttery quality continues: mellow and honeyed, like soft toffee cream, then crisps up towards the finish.
Finish: Spice and harder than you'd initially expect.
Comment: Rye bite with butter and vanilla coating. Cowboy Junkies.
Score: 7.8
Taster
Nose: Drier, pruney, slightly medicinal.
Palate: Rounded. Tightly interlocked flavours.
Finish: Milk chocolate. Sweet. By far the biggest finish in this group of Canadian Clubs.
Comment: That medicinal touch gives this whisky an appetising edge.
Score: 7.8
