Tastes

Fruity and floral this is no longer made unlike the 17 and the 21 and replaced by the harmony which is still good but I would say the 12 yr still edges it just a step further. While still a very polished whisky the 17 is still a big step from this. Also appears that my previous comments on the 12 and 17 on distiller has gone to the angels :)

Beautifully light yet layers of complexity that's fruity, sweet and a little of smoke and salt. While the 700ml bottles have gone so much up in price, If you find one of those 50ml bottles grab it and try it !

Smooth and balanced complexity and the sherry influence is just rich maybe only the lighter side

Tried this at the hakushu distillery - this is Peaty and smoky yet smooth and lively - top stuff

Smokey and sweet - not bad

Not quite the Octomore but the peatiness was not far off - not bad

Sweet caramel and sweet again - it's ok

Rich and sweet and dropped a cube in and it became fruity

I must say this is decent and borderline good but it just can't stack up to the WR double oak which just blew me away. There are cinnamon spices which is likely what saved this.

Citrusy, fruity and with some caramel. Looks lighter than the double oak and smooth.
