Tastes

Nose: Vanilla, toffee, oak, chocolate, plums, raisins Palate: Vanilla, blackcurrant, plums, chocolate, apples Finish: Chocolate, intense oak, vanilla, raisins Nose is awesome, palate is little lighter but towards the finish it explodes with such intensity. This is the most intense 12 year old I have ever had. Tastes much older than it is.

Nose: Vanilla, mild chocolate, raisins, oak, hint of smoke, apples Palate: Raisins, chocolate, apples, salt Finish: Chocolate, spicy oak, plums, salt This is a special one. Not a sherry bomb, but all the ingredients are there. It is just tuned down a bit for an elegant taste. The mild smoke gives it a unique taste reminding me of some bbq feast.

Nose: Vanilla, caramel, apples, orange, cinnamon Palate: Apples, orange, vanilla Finish: Chocolate, oak, orange Very nice for the price. Not complex or anything special, just nice dram.

Nose: Raisins, chocolate, spicy oak, sherry Palate: Plums, raisins, chocolate, oak Finish: Spicy oak, chocolate, raisins Excellent sherry-heavy whiskey. Its all chocolate and dark fruits. Not overly complex but sherry lovers must buy.

Nose: Vanilla, oak, apples, raisins, plums Palate: Vanilla, appless, plums, raisins Finish: Spicy oak, raisins, plums, chocolate Elegant and restrained sherry matured whiskey with excellent balance. Very good distinguishable style with this one.

Nose: Orange, nuts, vanilla, oak Palate: Plums, nuts, oak, orange Finish: Orange, oak, plums, vanilla Absolutely the best cheap blended whiskey. Simple but delicious.

Nose: Vanilla, smoke, ash, plums Palate: Vanilla, salt, apples, plums, smoke Finish: Ash, oak, smoke Nice young islay whiskey with sherry flavours.

Nose: Seawater, iodine, vanilla, oak, apples, raisins, hint of chocolate Palate: Raisins, apples, vanilla, oak, salt Finish: Spicy oak, chocolate, plums What an excellent whiskey. A really sherry influenced dram but with a twist of islay flavours, without the smokiness ofcourse.

Nose: Vanilla, salt, caramel, apples Palate: Vanilla, apples, plums, salt Finish: Chocolate, spicy oak, plums Excellent whisky for a 10 years old and very affordable.

Nose: Vanilla, smoke, plums Palate: plums, faint smoke Finish: Plums, oak, mild chocolate This one goes pretty far from my preference. The smoke is too mild. It would be better without the smoke.
