St. George Single Malt (Lot 18), 43%

Plummy, earthy, and zingy with grapefruit and pine aromas, along with orange marmalade, raspberry, and hazelnut. Light-bodied and silky in the mouth, it has flavors of lemon cake, hazelnut, milk chocolate, and intense floral and fruity hops, as well as sweet plum and mocha notes. This whiskey's beauty is in its delicate balance, although it may veer too far out of the middle lane for conventional palates.
