White chocolate on the nose, followed by creamy fruit on the palette. It has a slight bitter burn in the finish, and acts younger than its age of 21 yrs. You can't get a comparable 21 yr old for the same price, but you can certainly get better quality for the same price, even if it's less than 21 yrs. Like a Talisker 10, Balvenie 12, Yamazaki 12, and countless others. Retasted 1/6: This time from a bottle as opposed to a bar sample. Much better second time around---warm bread pudding with a tinge of chocolate. Really good for the price.
