Review transfer from Barreled from February 2016. I’d love to have another go at this one and write a better review. Typical coloring for JW, perhaps a shade lighter than JWB12. 43% which is up from their usual 40%, and only single malts used in this blend. This is the 2015 rerelease for the States. I did not try the original release so I cannot compare it to that. Crisp red apples on the nose, hard to get past that but also some floral notes. Very light peat on the palate/finish compared to JWB12. Slightly peppery, probably using Talisker. A good scotch. Better than JWB12, but not by much. 3.75
