Comments:

A small drop from "the smallest bottle of whisky in the world". As such, it is about half a mouthful, but enough, I think, to write a useful tasting note. It's remarkably like Christmas fruitcake, lots of dried fruit, vanilla, and an eggy French toast sort of flavour. It doesn't hang around in the mouth long - drinking this took about two seconds! And I miss it already...

Verdict:

I like this.
