Price: 185 Issue: Fall 2020 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Blended Scotch Whisky

An exceptional blend from first-fill American oak casks, which has Glenburgiewhisky at its heart. Dry oak, Rolos, cantaloupe, dried mango strips, papaya, andcinnamon on the nose. Rewarding and weighty, with caramel, orange, raspberry,layers of spice, and dark toffee, with a concentrated fruitiness and a smear of spicesleading to a warm, dark, lengthy finish.
