Single Malt — Highland, Scotland

April 5, 2018 (edited June 5, 2018)
Price: $59.99 at Total Wine in Houston, Texas
Setting: Neat in a Glencairn, with a fat basset hound in my lap.
Color: Dark amber
Nose: Sweet and delicious. Stewed apples, roasted nuts, toffee, and baking spices. It smells like a tasty apple and nut desert. I want to take a bite. (20/25)
Taste: Honeycomb, peanuts, stewed fruit, and oak. Really pleasant mouthfeel. (45/50)
Finish: Short and light. Baking spices, apples and peanuts. (20/25)
Conclusion: It's a solid dram and all its components are well-made. That being said, I think OG Macallan 12 is roughly the same in terms of enjoyment and that costs $10 less. I'm glad I tried this, but I don't know that I'd buy another bottle anytime soon.
85/100
