Nose: Rambutans, red grapes, honeydew melon, watermelon, apple juice.

Tasting:  Sweet sour. Rambutans, mangosteen, apple juice, cinnamon, vanilla, hints of toast. 
Finish: Long. Mangosteen, rambutans, black tea, white grapes. 

Comments: 

Cask 7808. Sweet and luscious, laden with tropical fruit - but not the usual tropical fruit one finds in whisky. Instead of pineapples and mangoes, there's heaps of mangosteens and rambutans. It's like munching fresh fruit at the roadside, while someone is grilling a slice of cinnamon toast nearby. This is excellent stuff.

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
