ABV 40%
By no means complex but not a single wayward note, either. Perhaps too one dimensional for some, this expression further proves what an excellent malt Cooley produces.

Taster
Nose: Very sweet and clean aged malt.
Palate: Light but intensely malty with a gathering of oaky spice. Excellent sweetness.
Finish: Lingering oak helps the malt keep an impressive shape on the palate.
Comment: By no means complex but not a single wayward note, either. Perhaps too one dimensional for some, this expression further proves what an excellent malt Cooley produces.
Score: 7.8
