Yummy
Very nice and refreshing whisky. Great value. Great quality. Perfect for sipping, warmth, 40% alcohol. If you like corn whiskey you will be surprised how good it is ,it's distilled and bottled in South Africa, sweet and similar to American bourbon whiskey or even better. It is a simple everyday whisky at the good price. I have subscribed for the regular monthly delivery and saved on price even more.

Smooth, rich and sweet
A wonderfully smooth and unusual grain whisky from just outside cape town. Imagine a very smooth, slightly sweet, rich version of a bourbon-style flavour with a hint of vanilla and you're about there... Highly recommend for any whisky connoisseur who wants to try something new for a great price. Would make a great gift too.

Worth a try
Very pleasant, much like a Canadian rye or a Speyside.

Light Bourbon!
Think Bourbon, but on the lite side! Its good as a straight drink but in a mixer you will need more to get much out of it! Also the drink finishes quite quick. You can actually buy better drinks online for the same price. I dont want to make it into a critical review but this drink will be best enjoyed straight and still an enjoyable dram with the classic bourbon flavours

Lovely wee dram.
As good as any U.S. Straight Corn whiskey. Reminiscent of Heaven Hill distillery's Mellow Corn but not as viscous. Sweet floral notes of vanilla, oak and fruit. Aged 5 - 6 years in first fill Bourbon casks. Well balanced. Will definitely purchase again. At this price point you can't go wrong.

A great bourbon replacement for peace lovers
I have been trying a lot of whisky of late trying to find some replacements for my favourite bourbons.. this single grain is superb and cheap! Easy on the palette; perfect for non-alcoholics.. Reminds me of Woodford Reserve- no acrid after glow which I imagine is why it became so popular. Mind you, I like ‘some’ scotch; the expensive stuff but on a cold winters night one needs a bit of spice; the peat belongs on the fire in my opinion. This whisky and some nice Canadian stuff, means I can now comfortably say goodbye to the American stuff :)

More bourbon than whisky
Bought this on the strength of reviews generally which were favourable. Very corn sweet forward and comparable with Bulleit bourbon in that sense which I'd purchased prior to this. From the first neck pour and a couple of drams in, I can say it's pleasant and easy drinking but lacks the body of a higher ABV spirit. If I knew that it was going to be so akin to a bourbon profile, I would have plumped for a Four Roses or Bulleit again. At least the latter is presented at 45% and has the more complexity due to the high rye content. Perhaps this is the pay off with a grain whisky as opposed to my usual single malts from a pot still. To sum up: pleasant and easy drinking but lacking depth and integrity strength.

Wonderfully simple whiskey
Lovely whiskey from a lesser known whiskey region. Easy sipping whiskey especially for the price.
