Members' comments "A pleasant, heavy whisky, with peat and what might be wood", "A dry sweet richness right through to the aftertaste, possibly marred by the late alcohol", "Improves with seven more years of ageing", "Enjoyable, especially before a good dinner", "Not a patch on its older brother", "Rather sharp and too young", "Too rough and raw", "Alcohol overrides the malt and prevents one from fully enjoying the whisky", "A very good pleasant whisky. I like the taste still. Not typical Spey".
