Comments:


This one was actually bottled by Gordon & Macphail - it's a semi-official bottling, done with the blessing of the distillery. Quite cereally, with an unusual bitter note for a Speyside. Strange finish, makes me want to explore other expressions from this distillery.

Verdict:

I like this.
