Tonight was the wife's Xmas party. I had three. First up was the newer Oban 18. This was heavier, maltier than the original LE version. Second was the best of the evening. G&M Glenlivet 21 with the colorful label. Lots of fruit on the nose and palate. Lastly was the G&M Speymalt Macallan 1990-12. This one was spicey with mushrooms. Very good but not great.

Had a few 'standards' from 2012 batches

Yamazaki 12 - best I've had
Nikka WFTB - Good but not as good as previous I've had
Nikka Pure Malt Black - As good or better than the last
Nikka Pure Malt White - Good but not as good as previous I've had
