Hey everyone! Coming back with
Hey everyone! Coming back with my second spirit review, enjoy!
Type: Blended Canadian
Mashbill: Not Disclosed
Age: 6 year old
ABV: 40%
Nose: Artificial sweetness, rose perfume, young green grain notes, a tiny hint of maple and a bit of lemon peel.
Palate: Slightly sweet notes of caramel and honey, light creaminess and weak orange preserves followed by a light boozy alcohol note.
Finish: Very weak warmth, slightly sweet but watery and has no longevity.
Price Point: About $17 per 750ml bottle at my local store.
Mark: 70 out of 100
Finishing thoughts: The glass this is nosed from is very important, as I was only able to get any definitive notes from it when using my Glencairn. While a step up smell and taste wise from some other cheap Canadian whiskies on the market, such as Rich and Rare, I found Seagrams to still be mostly lacking on flavor, however please note that I come to this conclusion as someone who drinks bourbon daily, as only has limited experience with Canadian whisky. I feel that for it's price, Seagrams VO may be a decent place to start on Canadian, though friends of mine say Wisers and Canada Club are better starting point. Overall, not a horrible option to have on the shelf, but there are bourbons in the price range I'd far rather have.
