Chapter 7 2008 (distilled at Allt-a-Bhainne) 9 year old, 60.7%

Price: 65 Issue: Spring 2018 Reviewer: Gavin Smith Category: Single Malt Scotch

A single cask, cask strength whisky finished in a first-fill bourbon barrel. The initial nose is slightly earthy, with walnuts, Juicy Fruit gum, vanilla, and ripe peach notes in time. Full, sweet fruit notes on the palate, peaches in syrup, overripe pineapple, with milk chocolate, fudge, and nutmeg. The finish is medium in length and perennially spicy, with aniseed notes. (Cask no. 170)
