This is really quite excellent. It is malty, floral, slightly sweet, and somewhat "thick" on the tongue. The flavors are quite clean and crisp. Very easy to over-indulge on this one being so tasty and easy to drink. I think the flavors are somewhat akin to Glenmorangie 10, though slightly less floral. Even though this is a NAS whisky, I find it to be as smooth as any 10-12 year old. This must surely be at least 8 years old on the average. Most sources list this for around $50, a little over priced IMO, but I lucked out and bought a case at close out prices. Yeah me!
