I think I'm much more tolerant of oak in my single malts than you people. This is ironic, seeing how much I don't like overaged bourbon, or overaged calvados. Anyway, here were my brief notes, from two months ago:<br /><br />"Very nice peated whisky! Both peat & malt have good depth and work together well. Thick, oily mouthfeel. It reminds me somewhat of a Ballechin, but it's dialed to 10, not to 11. The only thing standing between me and a full bottle is price - $100+. 3.6* (86pts)."Florinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14445344658258056628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3101162324715983722.post-45499971286667280122015-11-09T11:37:29.310-05:002015-11-09T11:37:29.310-05:00I'm just glad you liked it.

Plus our average score on these two was almost the same, differing by 0.5 points.Diving for Pearlshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02373371259792882112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3101162324715983722.post-77834762389188706162015-11-09T11:10:47.894-05:002015-11-09T11:10:47.894-05:00To think I liked a whisky that others thought was ...To think I liked a whisky that others thought was over-oaked!My Annoying Opinionshttp://www.myannoyingopinions.comnoreply@blogger.com
