330 ml bottle from St. Andrews and consumed nearby. Conservative BB date stamp of March 2016. One of 3361 bottles. Barrel aged for 64 days.

Looks great: deep,dark, clear red-brown body with a good very head.

Whisky dominates the aroma and permeates the flavor, but there's decent balance here, with the some dark roasted grain flavor evident and coming out clearly by the finish. No expert on this, but I suspect the bourbon barrel used was fairly high grade. In any case, very good bourbon flavor and aroma.

Medium body with appropriate medium-light carbonation.

Well hidden alcohol, excepting some nice smelling esters and slight warming.
