on the nose a wee hint of Tormore and then and then Sherry, notes of stewed plum, a wee hint of spice and some oak.
On the palate the sherry is very mighty, doesn't leave much space for other notes. A mouthfull of pleasure with a short to medium finish. That is with the first sip, the more you have, you get a layer in your mouth, smooth but lasting.
A Smashin' dram at an nice price in Cask Strength, a bit to heavy on the Sherry side. Perfect to sit down at sundown and just simply enjoy... :-)
Tried this as a miniature and it blew me away.
The full bottle seemed overdiluted.
I bought this for my husband who loves peaty whiskies. He was impressednot only by the peat flavour but also the smoothness - I think it could become a new favourite.
This is an easy drinking whisky,very mellow with a hint of peat,a great 12 year old and sorry if you missed this one.
Hard to find bottle, reasonably priced, secure and promptly delivered
