Honest opinion
I'm not a Speyside aficionado (usually a fan of Irish and peat-forward Islays), so I'm writing this review on behalf of similarly inclined whisky drinkers.
As soon as I opened the bottle I has a bad feeling this wasn't going to be for me. Heavily sherried aroma noticeable from the start. Dark fruit and perhaps hints of Christmas cake.
Palate is much of the same: sherry boldly asserts itself and finishes with a warming spicy kick. Quite smoky this one, and as MoM points out, hints of tobacco and cinnamon.
I wouldn't call this whiskey harsh but does have boozy profile - which at 60% ABV is to be expected - but it does taste slightly young in my opinion. I think this is a decent after dinner whiskey but is sitting on my shelf longer than most other bottles do, unfortunately.
