Paul John Christmas Edition (2024), 46%

A combination of virgin oak-matured and Caribbean rum cask-finished whiskies, this unpeated single malt is nicely spiced with aromas of malted milk, vanilla, candied peel, mango strips, and juicy sultana, backed by summer berries, cinnamon bark, and freshly baked bread. A rich sweetness with a dark syrupy texture, the flavors revolve around malt, rum-raisin, generous spices, toffee, marron glacé, gingerbread, black tea, and new oak.
