Last year, I came across this variety pack at $20, so I couldn’t resist buying it. These packs offer a fantastic opportunity to explore different whiskies without the need to invest in full bottles. I’ve always been a strong advocate of trying before buying, especially considering how whisky prices consistently continue to rise. Now, let’s dive into this tasting experience.

Legacy Chapter Two

Nose: oak, vanilla and fruit

Palate: spices, apples and sweetness

Finish: fruit, vanilla and oak

Cost: $80-$100

Thoughts: This one exhibits a rawer character, likely due to its higher alcohol content. It does carry a noticeable bite, with flavors of spices, vanilla and oak shining through.

Among these three options, I found the 18-year to be the better choice. However, if you’re specifically looking to try a whisky from this brand, I would recommend going for the 15-year instead. It surpasses these three options in terms of taste. While these whiskies are not bad, considering their costs, there are certainly better alternatives available out in the market.

Cheers!
