Now if only there was an appropriate TV show to watch while drinking Downton Abbey Whisky...
Vanilla shortbread and a dusting of sugar, with a menthol hint alongside strawberry jam.
A good helping of caramel, with toffee apple and lots of cinnamon.
Barley sugar and earthy oak.

This one really took me by surprise. I thought it might be a really lazy attempt to capitalise on the successes of the television programme. Not at all, this is one of the finest blends I have ever had. Notes of banana shine through the youthful spirit lead nose. More underripe banana on the palate complements the minty white spirit esk taste. What an accomplishment! Tasted blind, I have sworn this was a Famous Grouse or even Bells. Well done Downton Abbey drinks!
