Malt Mission 2008 #296

As we approach the landmark of Malt Mission #300, we also get closer to a big change in our lives. More on that tomorrow.
Named after the water source of Glenfiddich distillery, this blended whisky is not often seen anymore. As far as I am aware this is a discontinued blend from William Grant and Sons although it is still available in some Latin markets (South American, Spain).
TASTING NOTES:
Soft and floral with some chewy, dense vanilla and a touch of smoke.
Malty, smoky, sweet and vegetal like potatoes and cooked turnips. Turns drier and more salty but overall very soft and easy. Dry, oaky finish.
SUMMARY:
Great blend of characteristics from across the wide world of whisky, all well-bound together.
