This was our selection for September's tasting. We found it to be quite enjoyable. It was rich without being brooding. It was intriguing. As other reviewer have said, there is a sweetness to it, but we found it to be well balanced. Indeed, on the nose there are aromas of spices as well as a pleasant scent of greenery of some sort; clover possibly or grass.
On the palate, we also caught a faintest of smokiness; unexpected in a Speyside. Over-all I'd call this a playful dram--coy perhaps.
