Auchentoshan 1978, 18 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 58.80%
8 This seems to me the definitive light tasting (triple-distilled) Lowlander. In theory, such whiskies mature young, but this has aged beautifully.

8 A charming thirst-quencher. No water please. It is perfect straight.

Auchentoshan 10 Years Old

Auchentoshan 17 Years Old, Bordeaux Wine
Single Malt - Scotland - 51.00%
8 The wine finish brings in sweetness and fruitiness but without masking the delicate grassiness and lightness of the Lowland style. A real cracker, perfect for a wake up call.

Auchentoshan 1966, 31 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 45.80%
8 A fine whisky, but does something as fresh and soft benefit from quite so much ageing?

Single Malt - Scotland - 50.50%
8 ?Excellent.

Whisky Magazine - Editors Choice - Winner

Cadenhead's Rosebank 1989, 9 Years Old

Dun Bheagan Lowland 8 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 43.00%
8 A pretty face with muddy feet.

Gordon & MacPhail Inverleven 1986

Gordon & MacPhail St Magdalene 1975
Single Malt - Scotland - 43.00%
8 Typically lowland, with a nice progression of sensation: sweet, malty then zingy.

Whisky Magazine - Editors Choice - Winner

8 Fuller than you normally get from Rosebank,but no worse for that. Highly recommended.
