Peat’s Thoughts: Rumour has it this is nicknamed “The Breakfast Scotch.” They surely didn’t lie. With hints of frosted flakes cereal, or just cereal sprinkled with sugar all over it, you get that gentle sweetness and soothing effect. Then maybe some fruit in the palate with a rather long finish. I mean this is so smooth it’s baffling how this thing has any alcohol in it. Granted it’s only 40%, but it’s like drinking a hot toddy. With your favourite tea. In a robe. On your king sized bed. On the top floor of the Burj Khalifa. It’s just too easy.
Cheers.
