typical grain whiskey, better in the nose than in the taste. Uncomplicated EveryDayDram for sipping, you don't need a second bottle.-
first sweet-floral with a slight alcohol note; the alcohol evaporates when the whiskey breathes. Then honey and caramel with typical (bourbon) sweetness. Fresh, bright fruits towards the sweet apple. Light spice with cinnamon and clove aromas.
-
first syrupy sweetness, peppery spice builds up quickly. Malt and barley taste. Slightly oily in the mouth. Wort continues to dominate with an onset oak aroma. Liquorice flavor still comes through strongly. Later there is also a slight hint of vanilla, which becomes more and more pronounced with each sip. - - - After about half a bottle, the vanilla aroma is strong. With air contact, the whiskey changes to this vanilla note.
-
medium. The malt and barley aromas remain together with oak. Spice gets a little bit bitter out the back, but is still ok. The liquorice flavor is also retained.

I would not call this whisky more like a sweet syrup.
Almost cardboard in taste on the palate, not that I ever eat cardboard?ColdAesthetics scored this whisky 70 points
Superfluous and disgusting, nothing else.-
Right nail polish remover, almost only that, in between what vanilla, very deterrent Esther notes, metal, solvents
-
Alcohol, ethereal, cheap leather and furniture polish, shoe polish, hint of rotten berries and vanilla
-
Toffee, cough syrup, herbs and bitter substances, plus metallic, short to medium-long

Not the best tipple I have ever tried.-
Quite pleasant on the nose with only a slight hint of sharpness.
-
Quite a thick taste - unlike most Irish whiskey I have tried. Is the Aras some form of furniture that has been used. Seem to remember a Shakespearean charcaster hiding behind the same.
-
Like a cough mixture.

I do not want to do this Hyde wrong - maybe Grain Whiksky's just not me. But of the three hyde whiskeys I have found this most unspectacular here. Neither in the nose nor on the palate very complex and demanding, and also remained in the finish barely memorable surprises. He is easy-going, uncomplicated and undemanding, but for the same price, some blends have much more to offer. In mixed drinks certainly well suited, but for pure enjoyment I just miss too much. As a big fan of the previous two Hydes I really expected more here. It will stay in my whiskey cupboard with two Hydes.-
Egg crème, a little vanilla, blossom honey, fresh hay

Alcoholic heat literally creeps down the esophagus, some grassy sweetness and vanilla notes are left hanging
