Not a hint of either the years of distillation or bottling other than the 25yo age statement, however despite these mysteries it does not disappoint. On the nose there is Demerara sugar inter mingled with oak, spice and furniture polish. There isn’t a hint of an off note. What a cracker! The taste reveals sweet wine, sherry, raisins, fruit cake and toffee with perhaps the ever slightest hint of smoke? There are also pleasant wood notes; saw dust, cedar and fragrant pine. The finish is very dry and long with a continuation of all of the above however dryness is predominate and once again there are an absence of off notes. A pleasure. Malt at the very end after a number of minutes, a nice surprise.

Priced at C$125 and worth every penny.
