Comments:


The kind folks behind the bar at the SMWS let me try a sister 18 yo as well before settling on this one. Fragrant and fruity. I like the not so subtle hints of rose in the nose, which suddenly exploded into my mouth as I took a sip. Very nice, heavy mouthfeel. A real pleasure to drink.

Verdict:


I like this a lot.
