So perhaps there are subtle effects of bottling days on the output, but ultimately anyone who is sipping on either of these Scenes is a winner in my book. The Midwinter Nights name evokes an image of me drinking the Rendezvous Rye out of a sturdy vessel made up of dried strawberries while lying down on a fluffy bed of snow decorated with sakura petals and strawberries. I've covered why the specific scene you have doesn't really matter for each act, I've ranked flights of acts over time, and I've of course dove deep on the whiskey before.

Thoughts: It starts good with the ultra creamy and nutty profile but going towards and with a bit of time in the glass it converges toward the more familiar set of Glenmorangie notes so its’ appeal went down a bit in my eyes.

As a consequence, I am approaching this with more anticipation than fear, hopeful that I can fulfill the promise of this review’s epigraph.The blending team over at High West definitely are doing their best work though, often spending weeks at a time tweaking volumes to get things just right.
