The Whisky Advocate

Green apple candy, honeydew, cantaloupe, lemon jelly candies, and cooked blueberries alongside pine needles on the nose. The palate is similarly soft, with more lemon and pine flavors, rye spice, and with water, bitter chocolate and dark berries. The texture is creamy and oily, like freshly made hummus. A rich finish provides good length, plus notes of blueberry compote and chocolate cake. The finish presents itself nimbly on this bright and easy sipper.

4 The Whiskey Wash

This is an easy sipper, it’s sweet and flavorful, and comes through with tropical cocktail vibes before adding any mixers. While the whiskey is on the expensive side, it is one that could impress at a party.
