Strathisla 12 Year Old (Old Bottling)

Found 2 of these in a shop in New England. Opened one for a special occasion. It's so good, I'm afraid to open the other.

Wonderful taste. simply you must try it!

I've been a Scotch drinker for almost 50 years (Chivas and Johnnie Walker)and have occasionally sipped a single malt, here and there. My dear sister just gave me a bottle of Strathisla 12, on the occasion of my 68th birthday and I must say that it is a wonderful drink. I don't claim to be an expert, but I do know what I like and this is it -- sorry, Johnnie, but I've been spoiled.

I am really enjoying this flavorful malt. There is a lovely spiciness combined with a smoothness that I really enjoy. I add a little splash of club soda instead of water to open it up. It is very satisfying.

I am enjoying my first bottle of this gem. The lovely oakiness gives it a depth of flavor without being harsh. An initial burst of flavor with a long finish. Very light on the sherry, which I greatly appreciate.

I am no expert - but of the malts I have tasted this is certainly the smoothest and the one which I will recommend to all serious whiskey drinkers - but no ice please just straight

GODFATHER of Single malt whisky -except price and recognition.This is my first whisky to start as single malt from Blends and then I was exploring Glenmorangie, Glen Moray & Dalwhinnie.
I recommended this product to couple of people in QV none of the customers are known to this wonderful product , they mentioned me about the price.
An example and a class of Peaty whisky which is not harsh. It's a delicacy for a get together-BBQ,Indian food & with spicy popcorn and a solo single malt whisky collector.
Strong Nose like Burnt Black coffee, liquorice whisky.
Tastes like sweetened honey blended with Vanilla.
A whisky takes you to Scotland every sip and its my 3rd bottle.
Needs a drop of cold spring water or a spoon of crushed ice in very small quantity(half a coffee spoon) just air the whisky
If you love single malt and want the feel of Chivas regal with Black label in a proper single malt version here is it.

A SMOOTH AND FRUITY LITTLE NUMBER,CREAMY ON THE TONGUE WITH A WHISPER OF SMOKE AT THE FINISH.A VERY ENJOYABLE WINTER TREAT, HARD TO STOP DRINKING!

Really delicate, yet complex...loved it.

This is a wondferful speysider, full fruity flavour and smooth. I am an Islay fan myself but this is still an excellent dram. I can also say that the distillers are a pleasure to deal with after a problem I had with a bottle.
