Its superpower is its price. Strong afterfinish. More palatable in a cocktail or to cook with.

Nose heavy caramel, with butterscotch, soft leather, citrus, cake, green apple. Soft and sweet on the palate, vanilla, leather, caramel, cake.

Honey, oats, cereal, hint of dried apricots and heather. Warm and summery

Good bang for your buck. Typical highland malt, but for a budget price.
