TASTING NOTE: Nose: cracking vanilla-malt split. Complex, intriguing, something to really get your nose into. Quite maltings-floorish; Taste: massive malt surge is invigorating and mouthwatering. Glorious; Finish: keeps clean and relatively oak-free; Balance: just one of those drams that should be within touching distance at strategic points around the house. Score: 93 (Jim Murray, Whisky Bible, 2007) |
