Reddish
Some sweet aromas are there that are new
Heavier feel on the tongue than standard
A bit of a flavor hangover
"Wine" finishing definitely adds "value" to the color.

sweet
medium to full
More like a Speyside experience than a Northern Highland
Smooth and sweet
A bonus dram for the evening. Interestingly paired well with the rich chocolate cake. Dare we pair a single malt directly with a dessert?
05Q2-Bluff June 18th, 2005

Atypical
Light - airy. Cheesy
Nasally - not exciting enough. Why isn't there more than the heat?
Dufftown? Speyside influence here. "Southern end of Northern Highlands".
05Q2-Bluff June 18th, 2005
Irving
Grassy
Classic
Minty
It tastes more like a Speyside than a Northern Highland. I would describe this as a middle of the road Classic scotch. "Rare Malt" they call it.

Nothing to get excited about but a nice even GlenM. A candidate for daily dram.

Sherry, floral, more ethery than the 18
Spicy , oakier than 18, more fruit
Warm and lingering
Reminds me more of a bourbon more than a single malt. I think that is more from young wood but just a guess.
