Duncan Taylor Battlehill Tullibardine 8 year old 46%
Tasted: Nov 2021
The nose is quite spirity and neutral with hints of hard barley, which is softened a little by a touch of honey and creamy oak. Subtle rose petal marc, lime, sweet corn and rye-like spices.
The palate opens with hard barley and honey. Good balance but it does become a bit cardboardy on the middle. Chunky vanilla and Bourbony oak comes through on the middle along with spice and citrus. A little hot, but not too hot. Good spicy after-taste with lingering clean rose petal marc.
