    By jdcook on 14th Oct 20092009-10-14T11:31:00

    The aroma is rich - peat, smoke, salt and a hint of sweetness. Very warm and inviting, it ought to be easy to extend the life of this dram simply by taking an extra sniff or two between sips but it isn't… read more

    By Anonymous on 14th Jan 20102010-01-14T12:46:00
