Dare I say this reminds me of a Macallan 12? Keep this one neat, mint, right out of the box, my friends. Much different than the first Auchentoshan I tried, which was the Three Wood. Nosing this is really a pleasant experience, because I can already tell things to come will be balanced. Faint light citrus, a good dose of vanilla wafers, and spice. The palate is not too delicate, but sweet. A nice mouth-feel, medium coat, with buttery goodness, oak, and peach cobbler with french vanilla ice cream. Hell yes. The finish is medium, but I am far from bitching about that. This one is "Peaceful Easy Feeling" by the Eagles. Get some! 3.75. Thanks for the sample Ryan!
