I quite enjoyed this one. Very simple flavoured dram, light and ethereal but carries and delivers the vanilla note well. I'm alternating between a 3.5 and 3.75 on this one. 3.5 because it's simple but 3.75 because it does simple in a very well balanced rounded way. Started at a 3.75 as after the poorly constructed Tomatin 18 which showed complete lack of care, skill or respect for the distillate this does. But then towards the end got slightly boring and i saw what the price was so 3.5 it is. But then after reviewing all drams on the day this was 2nd or 3rd so back to 3.75 it is. Now interestingly value wise this was £100 pounds which was an exorbitant rip off. I appear to be not the only one who thought so as MoM now has it 1/3rd off at £65. Looks like the CB bubble if not whiskey in general is about to deflate if not burst...about time. There are a few expressions which come to mind, about those swimming naked when the tide flows out and the emporer having no clothes which are now going to come into play (ok the moral of those stories doesn't actually apply to overpriced whiskeys trading on their status for a price premium but the figurative implications sound close :-))
