 A superbly balanced malt with warm aromas of honey, cloves, nutmeg and vanilla that come from the long years of maturation in American oak ex-bourbon barrels. Cloves, bananas and pears can also be detected in the aroma adding to the complexity of this exceptional Vintage.   

This Vintage  achieved a score of 94 in Jim Murray’s 2011 Whisky Bible and therefore was awarded “Liquid Gold” status
