This dram feels unique compared to others in the lineup.
This bottle is a holiday spirit, a perfect mix of nuts in a bowl with some pine needles and a fresh pine cone on the side.
The nose offers nuts, iodine and pine needle. A deeper pull has me smelling dried fruits and sugar cane.
On the palate, it greets you with dried fruit, perhaps apricots and figs. A pleasant nut taste quickly follows, I taste cashews with beer nuts.
The finish remains nutty, with iodine make a delightful appearance.
The bottle I am drinking is near empty and opened for 1 year so the intensity has faded some. I find this bottle delicious and a great palate to Try at least once.

@StephenFreyseng At duty free shops I invariably see 1 litre bottles of the Island Green variant rather than standard Green Label. It's not too bad - a lot heavier on the Caol Ila influence.
@cascode i hear you, price point has increased too much and I have not restocked the bottle either. Maybe if the price drops or I acquire it at Duty Free some time.
@StephenFreyseng I used to always have this in the cabinet but price increases have reduced its appeal and I've not tried it for several years now.
Not a Single but Blended Malt, but very good indeed
