Darkness 8 Year Single Malt

Single Malt — Scotland

4.0

4.0 out of 5 stars

The nose was primarily caramel, some vanilla but that’s a component of caramel so … Palate was a mix, sherry, lemon, caramel, creme brule. Very smooth. Finish was medium long with lemon again, sherry and some sweet spicyness on the side of the tongue, not just alcohol burn. Quite interesting.
