What once smelled to me like candy puffed peanuts to an untrained schnauze, I gotta say after having lots of scotches I'm getting a lot off this nose, lots of things going on. Very buttery. Taste-wise it goes down smooth enough, to me it tastes kind of nutty and peaty, finishes kinda quick, the tail end is so faint but it lasts on a low hint that's barely worth reporting about, but all in all at this price not bad. Scottish version of Bushmills in my opinion...
