2ndSip scored this whisky 80 points 
Nice and fruity-fresh on the nose and a full flowery bouquet. The taste is more dominated by the malt / grain note and the fruit fades into the background, even if they are noticeably present.
For around 35 euros a bottle, you can't go wrong if you're into pure, not too complex ex-Bourbon whiskys.
This is a whisky to drink alongside, without having to / be able to be analyzed in a deep and complex manner.
[80 - 76 = 'really not bad'-whisky --- but do I need a (second) bottle?]

-
light fruits and stone fruits (apple, pear, peach; after a certain time an aroma of unripe bananas appears) as well as a floral aroma (reminiscent of a flower meadow in summer with a dash of lavender) In the background, light spice (cloves and cinnamon) and a malty note. The sweetness is noble and only comes into play in the form of powdered sugar.
-
very sweet in the beginning. The spice is held back at first and arrives on the tongue with a little delay, but rather restrained peppery. It swings into a slight bitterness, which quickly turns into a malty note. The fruits do not come out quite as strongly, although noticeably there.
Sweeter and fruity on the second sip. Bitterness no longer occurs, but the malt / grain note emerges again, which goes well with the whisky in its entirety. -
the malty note stays in the mouth for a relatively long time. The light fruits remain for a while, but the malt note is dominant.
On the second sip, some oak sticks to the maltiness.
