Balvenie Caribbean Cask 14 Year

Absolutely fantastic, no words

Quality, slight hint of the rum does not overpower.

The rum is upfront on the otherwise tame nose, but mostly sweet banana cream. The malt shines through on the palate with a hint of apple, and some baking spice at the end. While not entirely convinced that this marriage of casks enhances very much (certainly not $90 worth), it is an interesting dram to sandwich between Summer and Fall.

Smooth at first/strong going down.
