M&H Classic Single Malt

Nose: rich caramel, dried fruit, oak Palate: creamy, vanilla, chocolate Finish: oak, nice and earthy This is really nice, but not too memorable

This is quite complex, but the flavors just don't do anything for me. I would not buy this bottle and I'm glad that I got a taster. Nose: Funk (it brought be back to Afghanistan...weird), malt, honey, cereal, spicy Palate: Orange, apricot, malty, cheerios, spicy Finish: Longer than I expected, slightly spicy, ethanol Mouthfeel: Slightly thin

Vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg on the nose. Banoffee pie on the palate gives way to a peppery finish which lingers to cinnamon and a bit of ginger. Yummy.

Getting some black pepper, along with hints of oak, vanilla, and maybe even honey. Still, the overall lack of definitive nuance keeps this from reaching the next level.
