Invergordon 25 Year (The Good Spirits Co.)

Stocks of older single grains are dwindling rapidly, and real bargains are hard to find. The Good Spirits Company picked one of these gems, and it's pretty affordable, too. On the nose, custard, almonds and sweet popcorn mingle with sawdust, ginger and hints of chamomile. Coconut cream, vanilla and honey are prominent on the palate, while peppery spices intensify. Water is recommended to tame the initial heat. Icing sugar, lemon peel and green tea fade in the fresh and oak-driven finish. For a mid-aged grain whisky, this Invergordon ticks all the boxes!
