Passport has a gold-leaning-to-amber appearance in the glass, coming from the added caramel coloring. As a cheap-end, mass market blend, Passport is bottled at 40% abv. The nose reveals a youngish, but very honest and upfront whisky. Cereal and honey sweetness meet a woody tinge, with a trace of astringency. The flavor follows suit, with just the slightest hint of peat ash note. The finish unwinds sweet, but dry and with moderate, short-lived warmth.
