Quite a nice whisky from Speyside. Without great surprises, but without any lack. A rather long finish let benefit for a while of the pleasure after the whisky has left the palate. Light hints of smoke mixed with a slightly honeyish sweetness make this bottle rather pleasant.
If we consider the price of this bottle, it is a very good price-quality ratio. For the blended whisky lovers, lets remind this malt is the base of the famous J&B.


A second tasting after a few weeks obliged me to revise slightly my opinion about this malt. The smell really reminded me an Edradour, with this touch of special and pleasant stuff. Malt? dried fruits? The finish stays long and pleasant...


The nose is characterized by the malt and some slightly acid touches, recalling bakers yeast on a fruity background. In the palate, the taste is rather pleasant, but without complexity, and malt is the main flavour, even if some remote smoke touches are present as well. A finish of average length.
