My understanding is that this was supposed to be available in the US by now, but as far as I know it's not. Too bad, because I really like it... Nose of honey and peanut butter (got that Bit O Honey thing going on), cinnamon. That palate is yummy! What the nose implied, light, with that cinnamon quite active. Mildly sweet, with the honey-bourbon flavors nicely balanced against the wood, super-drinkable. Finish is a mildly tannic fade of Bit O Honey. It was only after tasting this that I realized the label calls this "Lemon Butter Pastry." Hmm... more honey than lemon to me, but yeah, that's a good description. Simple and not a big whisky, but great at what it does.

N: Nice combination of oak and fruit on the nose.
P: Mainly a sweet oaky affair but pleasant and drinkable.  Apples.
F: Quite dry.
