Bladnoch 10 Year Old - Flora and Fauna 70cl Whisky

Overall

The nose has a curious mix: notes of ester and cooked fruit with burnt white sugar, there is a firmness and with it something vaguely vinous. The palate is quite full and oaky, but with sweet spices creeping forward and a cereal, biscuity feel. Some port perhaps, here and there and lots of wood. The finish is a touch premature, but nonetheless pleasant, this can sometimes be the way of things, curiously, wood still lingers.
