Saw this on the shelf and thought wow! A cask strength Auchentoshan with no chill-filtering? Gotta be good...
Nose: Powerful, needs water to tone down the alcohol, but you will be rewarded with sweet vanilla citrus, with very creamy undertones.
Palate: Very strong citrus, spiciness appears, the vanilla cream and toffee stays nicely in the background.
Finish: Really nice and sweet, superb stuff!
If it's there on the shelf, you should buy it!

@Jericho: agreed! The 2011 edition, by the way, is just a tad better than the new 2012 edition, so if you can still get a bottle from 2011, do not hesitate.
