3.5 stars - 200 ml bottle, gift set The bottle reads: “The best of Speyside…an elegant, sophisticated Speyside with the most complex aroma of any malt.” Which is marketing speak for: “Kiss my Cragganass.” Bravado aside, the aroma is excellent and this is surprisingly good. The finish is a little over oaked and slightly astringent. Honey, vanilla, little doses of citrus, smoke, malt. Aroma pairs well with the taste. Clearly well crafted. I am a bit baffled on why this is $70-85 USD a bottle locally. I give an edge to Johnnie Walker Green and Clynelish 14 yr. Both are in this flavor profile, and are a better dram with a lower cost of ownership.
