Tasting Notes by Eye-lah-Guy

What happened to this whisky? Medium amber in the glass; nose of orange zest and oak commands immediate attention; medium body; subtle grains are dashed by myriad of flavors: toffee spice, golden raisins, and finally subtle oak, but the flavors are way off balance; nice warm finish of oaky malt. Still a good dram, and don't make the mistake of tasting just once; there tends to be much ado here, but somewhat wrecked by the havoc of random flavors making no particular statement.

Not what I recall from my previous tastings.
