Inchgower 1998-2013, Connoisseurs Choice, Gordon & Macphail, refill sherry butts,46% abv.

Indepedent bottlings of Inchgower are relatively rare as most of its juice goes into blends, in particular Bell's way back when, and Johnnie Walker since the distillery is owned by Diageo now. I also heard it was used in White Horse blends as well.

Nose: sweet, cereal oats and dried fruit, cereal milk.

Palate: woody, tobacco, earthy.

Finish: short, bitter young tofu skin.

Nose is stronger than the previous Bladnoch, not into that tannic tobacco, old lotus leaf taste though. Pretty bad stuff in my opinion.

Grade: D
