A dram of this is genuinely delightful. Sadly, I was only able to sample the last ounce of the bottle before it was gone. I would have loved more time with it. Raisins greet you on the nose. It's a pleasant surprise that I'll now look forward to in the future should opportunity arise. This is silky smooth with vanilla, saw dust and a brilliantly sweet finish. I'll be seeing you again Balvenie. (OrTB)
