Cadenhead's (distilled at Glenlivet) 12 year old, 60.5%
Price: ● Issue: Spring 2002 ● Reviewer: John Hansell ● Category: Single Malt Scotch
Amber gold color. Rather sweet aroma and flavors of caramel, light toffee, almonds, and vanilla. A background note of fruit (lemon? ripe cherries?) contributes to its complexity. Its body is somewhat rich and chewy. A dryness on the finish keeps the sweetness of the whisky in check.
