Guys, I think I found it. That go-to bottle. That one whisky that you love every little thing about, from the bold and stylish presentation to the complex taste. This makes you remember why you consider yourself a scotch drinker in the first place. Now I know you're curious, "What does it taste like?" The thing is, I get something different with every sip. I can't wait to explore this bottle. After the first dram, I get mint, delicate smoke, banana, and sherry-derived nuts on the nose. The palate is quite sweet, reminiscent of raisins and pineapple. A tiny red pepper is lying dormant in there too. Sherry nuts meet smoke on the finish. Pairs well musically with Iron Sky from Paolo Nutini. Great stuff, a worthy whisky for my 50th note on Distiller. Cheers!
