A very good core bottling and in my view underrated. When it first came out I thought it was better than the reviews were saying at the time and I still think it is a good dram now.

Review is for a 2006 bottle

Caramel and vanilla, very malty with a pleasant smoke. Sweet fruity and pleasant in the body. A long finish. Sherry is missing for me here, but is otherwise a masterpiece.
