Single Cask Nation (distilled at Tormore) 21 year old, 49%

Price: 165 Issue: Spring 2018 Reviewer: Gavin Smith Category: Single Malt Scotch

This was distilled in February 1996, matured in a second-fill bourbon barrel, and bottled in April 2017. The nose yields nectarines, vanilla ice cream, fudge, and milk chocolate. Smooth and rounded on the palate, with ripe apples, toffee, walnuts, and ultimately, a hint of lemon, plus black pepper. Nutty and subtly spicy in the lengthy finish. (156 bottles)
