    If you are looking for something a bit off the flavour profile beaten track then this is it. What an intriguing, well balanced combination of tropical fruit and vanilla with a lovely old woody and leatheryness that I find quite unique. I expect this is very much down to the excellent use of bourbon, port and sherry casks in the process of maturation. A superb dram.
