Score 94/100 · Whisky Advocate, Sep 2023

Concentrated citrus and milk chocolate notes go back and forth amid beautiful layers of seasoned oak, with aromas of walnut, date, raisin, vanilla essence, and treacle, wrapped in a web of peat smoke. Sherry fruit, caramel, red apple, and nectarine flavors meet clove, pepper, and peat smoke, but are then driven back by soaring baked orange and creamy milk chocolate notes, ending with a long, spicy, sherried finish. Utterly charming.

Score 88/100 · Whisky Advocate, Mar 2016

A polished nose of red apple, cinnamon, caramels, and salted almonds makes for an enticing prospect on this showpiece dram. The taste exemplifies smoothness. The indulgent palate comprises dark cooked fruits, coffee, malty cocoa, sticky toffee pudding, fudge, and a fine line of orange. Roll it around the mouth: the integrated aged grains enable these select malts to achieve their full flavor potential. An exceptionally long finish has remnants of that toffee pudding and a well-sucked aniseed ball. Treat yourself.
