A well-composed whisky with toasted hazelnuts, praline, apricot and mirabelle jams, followed by a pleasant walnut, orange-cookie and peppery coffee finish.

Highland single malt Scotch whisky distillery founded in 1897. Takara Shuzo is its majority owner.
A well-composed whisky with toasted hazelnuts, praline, apricot and mirabelle jams, followed by a pleasant walnut, orange-cookie and peppery coffee finish.
A challenging but rewarding whisky that improves with water, revealing cherry, blackcurrant, praline and a more balanced, coherent finish.
A pretty superb whisky, with sherry, walnut cake, chocolate and citrus leading to a long, pleasantly bitter finish.
