67- Nose
- Dusty.Rubbery.Burnt tyre.Gets better in time.Light toffee.Touch of milk chocolate.
- Palate
- Sweet and flat.The same rubbery note again,followed by the same toffee one.
- Finish
- Does not hold on the tongue.
- Comment
- Really disappointing.Where is the fresh lively sweet character of Arran ? Has it lost its sparkle ? This whisky seems alreadytired.Or is it me ?
