A beautiful ceramic decanter holds an Ian Mcleod Blended Whisky, and the beautiful bottle shows the Skye Island. A very appealing 21 year old whisky that is very easy to drink and very hard to find. Bottled at 40%abv, tawny color. On the nose, it feels old. The first aroma is humidity, and old library, old books. Sawdust, caramel, dry orange cake. Burnt hay, ashtray. After a first sip, it released toffee and dark chocolate. On the palate it is very good. Oranges, caramael. Super salty, a hint of pepper and red apples. A secind sip gave me more salt, but a velvety feeling with leather also present. Aftertaste is peaty and a little too salty. Smoke and salt. Hay and mint. A salt bomb really, but not off-putting. Overall, this is a very well crafted blended whisky. It doesn't even feel as a blend, since no grain whisky is felt here. Some Tamdhu notes are recognizable in here. Nice dram, my score for it is 89 over 100.
