Seagrams VO Gold

Type : Whiskey
ABV : 80
Producer : Diageo
Country : United States
Size : 750ml
Description :

Seagram’s VO Gold is a blend of individually selected whiskies, none less than eight years old. Made from pedigree grains and the purest Canadian waters, Seagram’s VO Gold is a rich and robust whiskey, and it has delicacy and balance.

NOSE
Raw grains, cinnamon, watery caramel, and ethanol are the first aromas to meet the nostrils and they come with a compliment of whisky spice and taffy. There are some biscuity undertones and a citrus that reminds me more of lemon pledge than it does an actual piece of fruit.

PALATE
The caramel richness is bumped up a touch on the palate and gets helped along with some notes of nougut, sweet grains and a mild citrus that is less pledge like and more fruit like here. There are some undertones of Twizzlers, cardboard and yeast that ride along with some hints of raw sugar and dust.

FINISH
Watery caramel syrup, raw grains, cheap vodka and an acrid sweetness ride out at a medium length.

BALANCE, BODY & FEEL
All of the odd notes and flavors work together in a strange way that ends up making it feel not-horribly-unbalanced. A medium body and a watery texture with zero bite does however make this an uneventful sip.
