McDougall's Selection, 13 year old, 54.7%

Price: 120.00 Issue: Spring 2008 Reviewer: John Hansell Category: Blended Malt Scotch Whisky

A blend of four different Islay malt whiskies. A pungent, merciless Islay whisky with intense peat reek, tarry rope, and raw seaweed. Fiery cinnamon, clove, evergreen, and unsweetened black licorice stick just adds fuel to the fire. An underbelly of vanilla malt and suggestions of coconut cream try to douse the fire, but it's a losing battle. Long, seemingly endless burning ember finish.
