MacNair's Lum Reek Peated 21 year old, 48%

Price: 150 Issue: Summer 2019 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Blended Malt Scotch Whisky

Scents of zested lemon, caramel, peanut brittle, and crystalized pineapple, with excelling smoke. What begins as a medley of toffee and caramel mingling with mandarin and lime soon shows plenty of bite: an eruption of peppercorn spices falls back to earth with flavors of hazelnut, ripe banana, and chocolate chip cookies. The finish dispenses dark toffees, Brazil nut, plain chocolate, and a little spice.
