Shieldaig 21 Year Speyside Single Malt

A 21 year old scotch for $86.99. That’s a steal. Plus it’s really good. You can totally taste its age. It’s spicier and the sweetness is well rounded. The only other sweet whiskey I’ve experienced that has that quality was Highland Park 18. For notes I got caramel, toffee, butterscotch and the finish is heavy caramel with pepper. I thoroughly enjoyed sipping this beautifully balanced scotch that didn’t break my bank. Can’t wait to try it again.

A rich, Single Malt Scotch crafted by Ian Macleod Distillers in Speyside, Scotland aged for 21 years in bourbon casks. It has an aromatic birth with notes of stone fruits, grain, wood, herbs & spices; while a rich life adds notes of cooked apricots, pepper & caramel; that led to a long & balanced death with notes of barley & toffee.
