Color: Pale gold

Drank: Neat, in a glencairn.

Nose: Malt, dried apples, vanilla, citrus, sugar

Mouthfeel: Medium body

Palate/Taste: Grass, pepper, citrus, milk chocolate

Finish: Surprisingly hot and long, with damp hay, citrus, tart and bitter, with pepper and oak

Thoughts: The nose and body are standard speyside fair, but it really falls apart on the finish, making me dislike continuing to drink it.
