This blended Scotch has an aromatic and woody nose with oak shavings, linseed oil, hints of nutmeg and ginger. The taste is smoky with a good oakiness and hints of malt, cocoa, stewed fruits, and a hint of orange peel. The finish is dry with a touch of smoke and a hint of black tea. (February, 2014)
