Comments:

Finished in Jurancon wine casks. Salty on the tongue, but with a long raisin-sweet, Pedro Ximenez finish. I've never had Jurancon wine, but it must be pretty good. It was a bad idea to add water to this whisky, since it turns phenolic and chemical, but undiluted it's very nice indeed. Another great 18 yo whisky for my collection!

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
