Distilled in 2008, this is the youngest whiskey in the group. A vast departure from last year's release — which was delicious — particularly on the palate. This year's is thinner and less complex, with unintegrated spice, botanical, and vegetal notes dominating. Yes, there's some honey, vanilla, bright fruit, and a hint of toffee, but it doesn't help. Easily the weakest whiskey in this year's Antique Collection, and a bit of a disappointment.
