Reviewed February 14, 2021 (edited December 5, 2022)This is better than the 21 year of the same distillery. It has a more rich flavor as it goes over the tongue and a lingering taste -

Reviewed January 5, 2021 (edited June 6, 2021)Tasted 4 bottles blind. The bourbon cask, sherry cask, rum cask, and 12yr single malts from grangestone. Nosing and tasting notes are from the blind tasting. On the nose you get cherries and apricot covered in honey with a nice bergamot and lilac thread running through as well. The taste is immediately sweet and the apricot is up front. Following that is a honeyed earl grey tea. The finish is short with the honey getting a bit darker and a light oak note moving in. Overall this was my favorite of the blind tasting. It was my top pick in both rounds of tasting and I considered it the winner by a substantial margin. -

Reviewed December 13, 2020 (edited December 14, 2020)Nose - apple juice, vanilla, cloying floral note, honey, grape, wet grass, lemon, cereal grain, hay, moderate to high ethanol burn. Taste - sweet and sour apple juice, honey, grape, vanilla, orange and lemon zest, fresh cut grass, grainy caramel, moderate to high alcohol bite, finishing fast and very sweet with young, bright alcohol and fading apple juice and honey flavors. This is not good, definitely a step down from the already very average 12 year offering. This one tastes very young and crosses into cloying territory. I really don’t like that sweet and sour apple juice note. It was on the 12 year as well, but it’s much more pronounced here than I remember it being on the other. At $25 for a single malt scotch, I imagine you get what you pay for. I’d rather spend the same money on a decent blended scotch and not mess with this one. -

Reviewed December 12, 2020There is bourbon on the nose, but it’s a very basic Highland on the tongue.
