Type: Blended Scotch

Bottler: Bacardi/John Dewar & Sons

ABV: 40%

The word that describes this whisky best is “complex”. The nose has notes of almonds, honey, butterscotch, and a touch of dark chocolate. The taste is creamy and smooth with a subtle dry touch, notes of hazelnut, vanilla, and allspice, and a touch of honey underneath. The finish is dry and long with a touch of citrus tartness.
