Authentic Collection, WM Cadenhead
Single malt - Speyside
Pale straw
54.8% ABV
Dram

Nose: Malted grains, lemon zest, candle wax, vanilla, brass polish, hints of soy sauce. With water, lemon juice, more vanilla, hints of raisins. 
Mouthfeel: Medium body, thickens, sticky, warm. 
Tasting:  Bitter sour. Candle wax, vanilla, lemon zest, honey, hints of orange blossom. With water, vanilla, sourdough bread, rolled oats. 
Finish: Short. Orange blossom, vanilla, lemon zest, hints of white grapes. 

Comments: 

Sweet and waxy on the nose and tongue, plenty of citrusy floral notes. A light and delicate Speyside. With water, it somehow (rather oddly) becomes more robust, cereally, more citrusy, and sweet. Very delicate, lovely, light whisky.

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
