Single malt - Speyside
Dark gold
54.5% ABV
Dram

Nose: Walnuts, blueberries, sponge cake, vanilla, toasted coconut, hints of cream. 
Mouthfeel: Heavy body, syrupy, sticky, mouth coating. 
Tasting:  Sweet sour. White grapes, blueberries, sponge cake, toast, prunes. 
Finish: Medium. Blueberries, white grapes, sponge cake, bananas. 

Comments: 

A Sauternes cask (second fill I believe). The dessert wine influence is evident, loads of toasty coconut, sweet nutty flavours. Blueberry jam sponge? Very close to that. Lots of white grapes on the tongue and in the finish. Good whisky.

Verdict:

I like this.
