Aultmore 12 Year

Light but not smooth. Floral

Sweet, but very flavorful. Paired with honey goat cheese on flax pita cracker with fresh dill on top

I hate to say it, but most people were right when they stated that this bottle needed time to be fully appreciated. I was really let down with the 3-4 first sips, especially when i compared it to its sibbling of 18, but that has changed. I hate to say it but most people are right when they name this scotch one of best entry level 12yo scotch whisky on the market. Besides, and this is of the utmost importance, i am in total awe of the design of this distillery's bottles and labels. Good job Stranger & Stranger!

Representing speyside isla river Nose: light, fragrant, nutty, a very mild bourbon-y vanilla and toffee, winter spice, caramel, candies nuts and maraschino cherry a really nice nose. Body: full bodied, no joke! Palate: spice is nice, can taste the bourbon cask sweetness and heat, it’s really nice. MJ notes mixed fruits. Finish: medium and warm Note: I like this one, it’s my kind of scotch hot and sweat, it’s not terribly complicated just a real nice dram. MJ called this finish short but sweet and pleasant with a palate that is minty (?) with nice balance. This is my jam!

Not bad a bit thin in the depth. Has a light taste similar to most speysides which I don’t like much
