Deep, rich, spicy and roasted nuts at the outset on the nose. A second nosing adds some dry grass undertones. Ginger, vanilla bean with swetness and spices on the palate. Lovely full and rich mouthfeel. Spices linger on the finish.

Canadian Club Classic 12 Years Old, 40% abv

I tasted this whisky using The Famous Grouse as a comparison standard ( the latter I rated as 60). I found the Famous Grouse to be mellower than the CC Clasic which had hints of honey and fennel with an unfortunate cloying resinous finish.
