Price: 599 Issue: Winter 2025 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Blended Grain Scotch Whisky

Drawn entirely from closed distillery grain whiskies aged in bourbon barrels, this venerable blend radiates elegance. The nose reveals honey, dried flowers, vanilla frosting, fresh oak shavings, Werther’s Originals, marzipan, and butterscotch sweetness. The palate has vanilla sponge, zesty citrus, green apple, and sweet oak, all laced with ginger-snaps, and a rich, satisfying finish of lime zest, caramel, and gingerbread. A little drop of liquid history.
