Bruichladdich The Classic Laddie

Nice crisp, sweet, semi rich, melon, hint of honey, light vanilla

Strong at the front, but so nice at the end. I get a lot of apple flavors

Light, crisp, honeydew, hint of cinnamon,

Let this one breath for quite awhile before getting into it. Refreshing and mildly sweet with a fairly oily mouth feel. Nose. I get lots of apples and sweet maltiness with mild baking spices, and wood. Palate. Very much like the nose with a touch of brine. Finish. Consistent with palate slowly morphing to a delightfully long honey tobacco note. I get all the satisfying rich notes I get from an Islay without the peat. I will be keeping a bottle of this on hand for sure.
