Stronachie 10 Year

Reminds me of Balvenie 12 on the nose--balanced fruit, sweetness, and spice. Medium to light body with tart apples. Finish is short with some burn. Starts better than it finishes, but not bad.

Honey, pepper

Did not enjoy. Light color and flavor. Fruity and astringent.

Sweet toffee and butter on the nose. Initially sweet on the palate with a spicy ending on to a short, very smooth finish. A nice, light Scotch with no smoke.
