Peanut brittle and vanilla on the nose. A bit sharp on the front end, with a very light mouthfeel. Almost seems like cotton candy with a barely there feel. It's not cloying like cotton candy, but it's sweet. Hints of nuts, caramel, and some wood spice. The spiciness lingers, along with some bitter chocolate, bitter walnuts. This is a great pour, and a steal at $30. 3/29/17
The 15-year (!!!). What. A. Nose. Deep caramel, cinnamon, graham cracker. Fantastic nose. Smooth for the proof. A strange herbal element on the palate. Finishes with leather. Palate doesn't follow the nose, unfortunately, but this is going to have fans. 2 out of 5. 5/9/18
