A 15 year old single malt distilled at the Willowbank Distillery in New Zealand. Bottled by the New Zealand Malt Whisky Company, who rebranded it under the name Milford.
The nose is punchy and malty. There are notes of dry oak and orchard fruits with a citric character. The palate is fruity and dry, all spice and ground ginger with aniseed and herbal notes. The finish is hot and nutty with cereal sweetness.
I tried this in 2000 and it was a nice drop. However having ordered it it was very poor. I think my brain a pallet was in holiday and Millennium mode. Its too expensive considering others.
BEST whiskey (nay, 'spirit' !) I've ever had !
I love this whisky,it's smooth like a 21 yr old glenfiddich but with a fresher taste. I drank a bottle and kept one, I'll drink it one day,it's fab! :-P
