Compared to the 1998 edition this one is more on the 'malty' side,
and the nose is not as deep … - it's ruled by fruit and honey sweetness.
But: what a wonderful Whisky !!!

Very balanced oak and sweetness with some fruitiness,touch of vanilla, very smooth

Lighter and sweeter than the 1998 version.-
Apple compote, apricot, toffee, vanilla, orange, pear, citrus, a little leather and some chocolaty peat. Something like an extinguished barbecue as well.

Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky
These tall distillery 21yos were always big drams with elegant silky
peat, wild green fruitiness, touches of oil, salt, sea air, lemon wax,
metal polish, cereals and a hefty measure of luscious sherry to boot.
Just marvelous whisky that everyone should try at least once in their
lifetime. (w-o)QuarterCentury scored this whisky 96 points

This has long been one of my favourites but it's getting expensive and difficult to find. Glad I have some bottles stashed.-
Oranges, coconut, hazelnuts and chocolate. Thing is, every time I have this I find something new. This time it's exotic tropical fruits. Complex, then.
-
How do I describe this? Tangerines today, with a coconut background. Some chocolate in there and a little pineapple
-
Creamy and long with a lingering Bounty bar flavour after the citrus

For me too, absolutely one of the greatest malts i ever tasted and i was really proud to add this bottle to my collection!hsmithjr scored this whisky 96 points
For me, this is my all-time favorite malt. Too bad it is priced for collectors.
Nose: Woody sherry, but not too woody. Kitchen spice rack. Sultanas. Stewed dark fruits, then citrus (sweet lemon mainly). Beach towels.
Palate: Sweet, oaky, and fruity. Yellow raisins. Salty bread dough. Candied honey. Slight diesel fuel.
Finish: Long and rather sweet. More raisins, or dates? Blacksmith`s coal (if you could taste it).
