House of Hazelwood The Legacy Collection 33 year old The Transatlantic, 57.3%

Price: 2100 Issue: Spring 2025 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Blended Grain Scotch Whisky

Banana chip, popcorn, rich golden syrup sweetness, oak spices, polished antique oak, green olive tapenade, and a grain note reminiscent of pots and jars in an old shed. Spicy at cask strength, with flavors of golden syrup, burnt caramel, banana bread, Belgian waffle, and caramelized honey almonds, then a finish of oak and overripe banana. Water reveals almond milk, more honey, and dried banana. (Release date: 3/25; 291 bottles worldwide)
