"A sleeper hit. Number 11 in the 2020 Top 20 for whiskyadvocate.com"

Other reviews... Ah, after the relative disappointment of the 12 year old , so good we are right back on track here... Not 100% perfect, but close enough. 93 points - Jim Murray's Whisky Bible 2021

...There’s something for everyone in this whisky, whose citrus brightness acts as a deft foil for darker earthy notes, showcasing the Highland distillery’s range. Lemon, orange marmalade, dried fig, golden raisin, milk chocolate, and a touch of leather on the nose; then more marmalade, chocolate, toasted nuts, cinnamon, and lemon pepper on the creamy, viscous palate. Still fresh with citrus, the finish slowly gives way to savory tobacco, leather, cocoa powder, and coffee bean. Subtle, nuanced, and perfectly balanced: a sleeper hit. Number 11 in the 2020 Top 20 46% Alc./Vol.
