Tastes

A solid single malt for all occasions. Fairly smooth for a 12 YO, it has sweet profile of honey and caramel with a medium-smokey but not over-powering finish. Recommended cigar pairing: Partagas 898, Ramon Allones Specially Selected, Punch Double Corona.

A fantastic whisky. Light on the palate with hints of apple and pear with a smooth citrus finish that leaves you refreshed. Give this a try if you're in the mood for a subtle but flavourful whisky. Pairs well with Cuban Romeo y Julieta Exhibicion No 4 robusto, Cohiba Robusto and Fonseca Demi-Tasse.

Superb. Peaty and smokey with a rich hint of leather, molasses and earthy spices. I consider this the benchmark for single malts. Take your time with this one! Cigar recommendation: Pairs well with Cohiba Esplendido, Montecristo #2, Punch Double Corona and Partagas Lusitania.
