I liked this whisky a lot. It has a lot of the same flavors as the 12, but they are a little more refined and softened due to the age. It is an explosion of flavor. Not overly complex, but every flavor in it is done extremely well. Nose: Dried fruits, vanilla, chocolate, coffee, toffee Palate: Dried fruits, sulfer note, chocolate, coffee, pepper, Finish: Longer than I expected for the ABV. Slightly bitter chocolate coffee Mouthfeel: Rich, soft, creamy, slightly astringent
