Comments:

A new series from Edradour. The cask was selected by musician Dougie Maclean. He's got good taste - the whisky is heavier than I expected from an Edradour, with lashings of chocolate and mint in the nose. This disappears on the palate, becoming more citrusy and minty, even slightly chemical. Brilliant.

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
