Edradour is one of Scotland's smallest distilleries and at the heart of the range, this 10 year old Eastern Highlander is a rather unique single malt, a decidedly rum-like dram with a thick mouthfeel. The distillery’s methods of production remain virtually unchanged in the last 150 years, and we can see why. If it ain’t broke and all that. This single malt’s decade of ageing was spent in a combination of oloroso sherry and bourbon casks.
Medium, great complexity. Thoroughly fruity, sherry, sweetness, alluring vanilla.
Cloying, seductive murkiness. Rum, barley, toasted almonds.
Spiced fruitcake with crème anglaise.
Has a strong nutmeg taste, I didn't like this scotch, everyone has a unique palate but not for me.
The colour was most encouraging but the taste was not quite as intense.
Lovely drink
Got a bottle fer Xmas - wow what a surprise! Is so easy drinking lol - so smooth! After one you just wanna go back! lol - Really good malt to introduce Noobs to :)
This is a very unique Scotch no doubt. There was an offputting aroma to this Scotch best described in between an indescribable Nut and a the smell of freshly polished wood. It is very different than expected and reminds me of a Darker more stronger flavor of Almonds with a hint of sulpher that best describes the flavor I am capturing. Certainly not a Scotch for everyone but I can see why it is beloved amongst so many who adore such flavors.
