...The Singleton of Glendullan.
Got it as a gift at our party last weekend.
An 80 proof, 12 year old from Speyside.
It's very good, a little spicy, a little grassy.
Very smooth and easy.
Doesn't leave a heavy flavor in your mouth like my usual Lagavulin.
"The Singleton single malt is distilled at Auchroisk Distillery which is located between Aberlour and Keith on Highway A95. The malt was changed to
"Singleton" because of the anticipated difficulty, on the part of the consumer, of pronouncing the name of the distillery. Auchroisk, pronounced
"orth-rusk," means "ford across the red stream" in Gaelic and refers to the Mulben Burn from which the distillery draws its cooling water."

Oh how I love whiskey. Irish, Bourbon, Scotch, and so on...
