Speyside 12 year


Just popped the cork on this one and 1st impression is a good one. Smooth and mild if not unremarkable. This is a wonderful scotch and really suited for people without much ability to discern the different flavors in scotch. If someone had directed me to this bottle to start with I definitely would not have had reservations about my scotch conquest going forward like I did with The Mcallan. This malt is worthy of a good, long look and possibly a permanent spot on the shelf right next to the Laphroaig and Bowmore. A very solid scotch even if it is lacking character.

Cost - $$$
