Tropical nose! Pineapple, coconut, slight floral, but not earthy or herbal notes. Slight tobacco leaf in there as well. The palate has a thin mouth coat, but a blend of caramel, light grapefruit, banana, white grapes, and tobacco notes come in the forefront here. The mouth coat improves in time. I tried it with water, but it was not beneficial, and actually a couple drops was even too much. It brought out sourdough bread and green beans. Finish was medium length with oranges, butter, and cream. The major tobacco tones should effect the theme song. I am thinking something by Johnny Cougar (Mellancamp for all you outsiders) like "I Need A Lover". Slap a 4.25 on it!

This sounds terrific - just the sort of profile I like :-)
Well, next round has a GlenLossie from me that's also from Alexander Murray, so it'll be a good way to tell how consistent they are. I am thinking that you'll like this more than the Berry's, but we'll see. I am quite curious of all of your reactions.
Sounds great, much better than the swill I just reviewed
