  • It is a very good dram actually, and the shaky nose is entertaining. Probably better than some other batches.

  • Deeper, richer, more viscous, and more intriguing than the 12 year old (and not as sappy as the 18 year old).

  • While enjoyable and quite delicious at times, I found myself gravitating back to the 12, a little put off by the whisky’s tough finish.

    Rich and pungent. Loads of pipe tobacco, sherry, old leather, stewed fruits and cocoa.

    Thick, rich mouth feel. No heat. Some pipe tobacco, nice oak structure. Loads of toffee, coffee, cocoa and stewed fruits. Blackberry and currant abound.

  • Finish:

    Long and rich, lots of honey, toffee and currant.

    Really very good. The complexity and character despite the proof is incredible here.
