Spirits Review #43: Loch Haim - Kosher Single Malt Scotch Whisky!



Bottom Line: Almost no burn on the nose. John got banana & vanilla on the nose but I did not. Very smooth going down. John tasted the banana/vanilla but all I tasted was sweetness followed by a peaty, charred wood note. 3 Thumbs up!
