Well, while I have tried a variety of scotches, most of the people at my B&M drink Glenfiddich 12 or Glenlivet 12. I wasn't ready to go all "Laphroaig," but I wanted a hillside that was a step up in flavor, price, and something less sweet.
This is what I decided to go with.
GREAT CHOICE!
the color was like a reddish gold and the nose was actually buttery and sweet and foreshadowed what was to come.
The flavors I got where actually BUTTER and some toffee with a little spice, with just a hint of peat and smoke to round out the flavors. And given that that I had just opened the bottle, it really opened up as I continued to drink.
The butter flavor was quite impressive and unexpected.
I think this is a great second bottle for those just getting into scotch.
ENJOY! :thumbsup:
