That's lovely...

Well, I have a bottle from 2016. It was already 25yo.
I want to try it... Box: average, Bottle: nice, Content: my dream... as I had a drop
with my friends few years ago...
I already know that it is a nice nectar... but I'm going to keep it for couple of years longer.
Things that can convince me are... a top party or a top price ;)

Simply Sublime

light amber in color, nose of subtle peat and subtle white oak, flavors explodes in your mouth yet restraint in an understated elegance, soft white oak, silky and round, with spicy but long finish. Tremendous power and finesse with long elegant finish. I wonder if this is the Japanese oak they've been talking about? The taste remind me of eating best Toro Sushi, i.e. subtle silky flavors to meditate and be inspired! This style is so different than the overtly sweet sherry oak stuff. This is sublime. 96 points. This got #1 spot out of Macallan 25 #2 and Yamazaki 25 #3. Trio of 25-year-old's compared side by side at the Yamazaki Distillery, for about US$ 29 per shot, (maybe less than a "shot?)

Strong & Smoky, But Not As Complex As We Hoped

We tried this after the Kinclaith 40 year old, and to be honest were disappointed in comparison. It was great but lacked the complexity and smooth buttery oak like richness of the Kinclaith. It was good, but not amazing for us.
