Comments: 

A light, fresh, summery whisky, but strangely, retains some sulphurous character more often found in sherried whiskies. Maybe it's a characteristic of the distillate. That mildly confusing note aside, there's plenty to like here - fresh lemon juice, white chocolate, and gentle bitter coffee. I think I prefer this to the sister sherried bottling.

Verdict:

I like this.
