(This review is for the 1997 Single Cask 1108, bottled at 58.4% ABV)
I have to borrow neuroscientific language to properly review this scotch: the dopamine load in the reward centre of my brain following a taste of this expression was overwhelming. In other words, MINDFORNICATING!
Chamomile on the nose with a touch of honey and pears. The palate is creamy and mouth-coating, with brown sugar, vanilla, wood spices, and what I imagine everthing Jesus, Confucius and the Buddha were trying to teach us about encountering the divine and perfect.
A revelation! (Now go and sin no more with cheap liquor.)

Wonderful, searching for it now. I have the Balblair 1983 1st release, magical. Sadly there is very little left :(
I don’t know, man. Sounds kinda “Meh” to me. Cheers.
So ... it's OK, huh? :-)
