2oz neat in rocks glass with big round ice cube, then several more drams neat in a Sutherland tasting glass over three days of Thanksgiving at the Uncle Michael Hoo-ha's in Freehold, NJ. Initial smokiness over fruity front, with some apricot wafting in and out. Lacks the initial smoky punch of the 16 and 8, but it does rear its pleasant head in the middle. Finish has lasting smoke and mild spice. Awesome. 11/26-8/19

@DCLawyer - I like your perseverance. If you can tackle 8,500 whiskies, then the Supreme Court shouldn’t be a problem. BTW, this score seems a little light, but then again you’re still in training. :)
