Rating: 6/10
Overall, a straightforward grain that has nice flavors if a bit on the simple side. Nice notes of vanilla, spices, good cask influence, a bit of floralness pop in and out to make for a good dram. The spice level is nice on it and provides a good solid contrast to the other flavors. A very good single grain from a now closed distillery
