- Excerpt: This one was tough. It had way more spice and oak than expected from the mash bill and aging. At a guess, it might be best served with a few small cubes or one large one. The balance expresses itself more vibrantly with the addition of water.

- Excerpt: Laws is steadily pushing their whiskey towards middle age, although this one isn’t quite there yet. None the less, the results really do continue to improve, step-by-step. The 8 year old bonded four grain shows some sophistication while remaining very approachable, making it a plain delicious sipper.

Pleasant on the palate, it’s like a warm bit of scone, flaky pastry, laced with honey and a touch of almond. Butterscotch, salted caramel, pleasant and sweet oak.
