I have had the joyous privilege of having the 15-year-old, half French half Scott, young lady attend Thanksgivings, Christmases, and New Years parties. As the Brits would put it, “she is a social bird”. As a Veteran OIF and OEF she helped the sea stories of a sailor just seem a little funnier and cherish the company of the closes friends and family. She is a lady that should assist in the warmest celebrations. My birthday is on 9-24-83 and she has been cordately invited to attend.
"As good as it gets...... .....without spending a fortune. Personally prefer Islay but this 15 yr old from the 16 men of Tain will do me until I die if needs be....a hefty 92 on my richter scale" Having lived all my life 19 miles from the Glenmorangie distillery, where the 16 men of Tain reside, I was surprised to read the above review. My ancestors are from the Braes of Glenlivet where The Glenlivet 15yo is produced,and this is a long way from Tain, as long as you enjoy the dram I don`t suppose it matters if you have absolutely no clue as to where it comes from!!!ps the name gives a very strong hint of its origins.
i am a fairly young 50.. i have been sneaking a wee dram since being a boy... i have tried many fine and rare whiskys over the years and must admit this is a gem and a steal at the price... i am sipping a glass and rolling the flavor around my mouth as i write... simply superb my advice it treat yourself today.. the fun part is their are still so many to try....
Great whisky, shame people have tarnished its ratings over a french oak cask, which it is clearly not going to be bottled in.
Not specifically a complex whisky but it offers a decent experience. Lackluster for a 15 y.o., miles better than the 12 y.o. glenlivet. Light and floral. A few drops of water go a long way here. For a good speyside dram Benromach 10 would be a better and cheaper alternative.
