Strathmill 2009 12 Year Old Signatory Vintage Hogshead Cask Strength

"Perfectly-proofed, drinking smooth and rich with a gentle bite to offset those sweeter, more caramelized notes. It is a beautiful pairing of distillate and cask that yields a core of multi-dimensional malt character (ranging from wet dough reminiscent of some American rye whiskies, to vegetal barley, to rich, complex malt) surrounded by a balance of sweet notes like mocha, white chocolate, and toffee offset by a nice, complex oak profile yielding cut lumber, old attic, and some wet carboard."
