Comments:
In a very saturated market, Celtic Honey Beekeeper’s Blend is doing a good job working to differentiate itself from the pack. The honey flavoring is not so strong to totally overwhelm the whiskey profile. I’m happy to say that this flavored whiskey is much more balanced than some of the competitors.
