Duncan Taylor 10 year old Dimensions Cask Strength 2008 (distilled at Tobermory), 53%

Price: 62 Issue: Winter 2019 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Single Malt Scotch

Highly approachable at cask strength with lemon biscuits, oak shavings, kiwi, vanilla essence, and breezy maritime notes. The palate unpacks lemon meringue pie and green melon, with an undercurrent of spice. Vanilla and caramel build atop a growing disquiet of peppery spice, with hints of peppermint to finish. This works superbly as a drinking experience without diluting.
