Great whisky, but I'm not sure it's worth its cost. Imagine a much mellower 15 with arguably the longest finish I've ever experienced in a whisky. Again, great, but when it comes to bang for your buck, stick to the 15.

Orange, vanilla and oak on the nose. Acidic and a bite, that is softened significantly when cut with some water. Long, lingering finish
Very pleasant floral notes. A hint of honey, citrus , very light smoke, with a peppery finish. I taste some apple as well.
simpel, zacht, korte milde rooksmaak in afdronk. zoetige geur.
Strong peat flavor but so smooth it doesn’t bother me.
sweet honey.subtle smoke.delicious
