TASTING NOTE: Finished for up to four months in bourbon barrels that once contained rum, this single malt has impact and power. Rum toffee and ripe banana aromas whiff from the glass, followed by a taste that's deep, big and full with flavours of fig, vanilla toffee, brown spices, ginger and molasses. The finish is long and spicy. Score - 95 (Margaret Swaine, winealign.com, Oct. 30, 2012) Price $ 261.95
