... rather delicate, straw-like, not very expressive at first, even non-alcoholic, more like some perfume. I check the empty glass, maybe I will find something expressive there - here it's like a mixture of herbs from the flower bed together with a bit of citrus. Overcooked fruits. I go back to the full glass. Some time passed, then notes of multi-fruit candies appeared. In addition, cookie aromas, cookie with custard or custard cream were added. Banana chips and pineapple slices. Quite pleasant. Not complicated but pleasant.
...at first we get bitter herbs embellished with delicate sweetness. The emerging spiciness does not last long, but this bitterness is there and does not let go. Quite a lot of nuttiness, almondiness, nutmeg. After the first sip, a slight tartness remains. The second sip - again the spicy spiciness, even greater than after the first sip, tea bitterness, oak tannin appeared, a slight fruity sweetness. However, the spices start to drown out this sweetness. It is not bad... but I guess that is all.
... medium, sweet with a drop of honey, bitter from the herbs with a nutty "glow", thin, watery
#0239 COMPASS BOX SCOTCH WHISKYMAKER TRANSISTOR BREWDOG DISTILLING Co. BLENDED SCOTCH WHISKEY 43%. ... ....in principle, TRANSISTOR was created for the brewery, i.e. to drink with beer. I don't drink beer, so I can't authoritatively (difficult word) state whether "this is it". As a whisky itself, it's not bad, rather average. There are such a lot on the market, nothing particularly stands out. You can empty the bottle and forget about it. Maybe drunk or washed down with beer it will show the other "bottom" or another range of waves on which TRANSISTOR transmits (there is even a scale on the label). Those who have not tried it, will not must be regretting.
