Douglas XO

Country: Scotland

Region:

Type: Blended Scotch

Bottler: Douglas Laing & Co.

ABV: 43%

Score: 80 Points

The nose is dry and grassy with sherry notes and a hint of spearmint. The spearmint note dominates the taste, with hints of sherry and lavender underneath. The finish is soft and minty. This whisky is a bit too minty for me, but my wife loves it. Remember that your tastes may be completely different from mine.
