Nose: Old leather, followed by my wife's pear and almond tart, complete with her signature orange zest. (3/3) Mouth: Explodes magnificently with more oranges, of the preserved kind. Gets richer and sweeter with time in the glass , if you have the patience (2.5/3). Finish: Long, very drying (2.5/3). Bonus point: 1/1 for audacity. Total: 9/10. Master of Malt sample 2/17/17.

@Lee: LOL. I see a 2018 timeframe on that ( 7-8 rounds, 3 x 4 =12 samples, 2 sample consumption/weekend...Yeah...I'm done till 2018 ;-)
Excellent review. I can't wait to get MY hands on Pranay's bottle to try it myself 🙂🙃🙂🙃
I finally got my hands on this bottle...seems like this is one of their best, if not the best. I think it's 3 yr old Clyneish (barely a teaspoon), 24 yr old Clyneish (90%) and 20 yr old Talisker (10%).
