I really, really didn't like the original 12 year. I thought the idea of a tamer Islay malt a nice change of pace, but the way it was presented, I though it came off weak and boring. How is the updated…

Another nose similar to my Clynelish experience. When this stuff hits your palate it starts off very smooth and creamy, then the spice explodes. In my opinion, it's quite the punch for a whisky at 43%…
