Always a favorite. Everything you love about the Glenlivet and speyside scotch.
N: fresh cider of Fuji apples and perry of Anjou pear. Inviting and lively.
T: silky mouthfeel of an off-dry flat cider. Fuji apple, Anjou Pear, Lilac, Elderflower, Chrysanthemum. The spice reminiscent of a Tempranillo grape. Salty.
F: bittersweet French oak, long and dry with the impressions of all the flavors present in the palate.
Incredibly balanced and flavorful. Marries well with almost anything you decide to pair with it. Milder maduro cigar is a surprisingly good choice!
Prefer this to the 18 year, as it retains the fresh malted barley flavors and aromas but has rounded out any semblance of a rough edge that may have still been around in a younger form.
