I am not a Scotch expert. I am a normal gentleman that has tried several Single Malt Whiskeys in restaurants, and wants to learn more. To do that I recently purchased 10 samples. At least one was from each region of Scotland. I had no regard for price. The goal was to try some very fine Whiskeys. I wanted to learn. This review is based on that. I am giving each sample 5 stars simply because they are all fine whiskeys and my pallet is not refined enough to make a 1-5 judgement. To me this was Very strong. Then I noticed that it is almost 60% so now I understand. Drinking this strength of Whiskey requires you to take into account the strength. I found it to be Very flavorful, with a very long finish. The taste was great but almost overpowering. Very smooth considering it’s strength.
