Wow. This is freakin’ good. This was our pour #2, sent courtesy of @pkingmartin , for our quarterly online tasting ( followed after a old rare Balvenie 10, and preceding a hefty in-your face JD single barrel barrel strength rye).
I so wish I bought this when I had the opportunity. Especially considering the price. And I’m not a sucker for labels, but this is of Artemis, which is NASA’s next flight to the moon ( sister of Apollo…which was the first flight to the moon ). I’m a huge space junkie, so this is one of the only labels that truly hit home for me.
If Brora had a wanna-be little brother, this would be it. Farmy, slightly peaty, a citrus hit. All wrapped in an elegant silky backbone of shortbread.
If you find this bottle, buy on sight.
Thanks again to @pkingmartin for the pour!

@Richard-Davenport i think this might have been a one off. Was for an incredible price as well. Haven’t seen it since
I've never seen this, but will keep my eye out now! I've got the regular 12 and 18, as well as a madiera-finished 13-year that I actually don't care for too much and should try again.
I keep telling my daughter she could be one of the first women on the moon thanks to ARTEMIS but I mostly get eye rolls - after 2 failed attempts to get into the astronaut program this might be the more effective outlet.
