Croftengea Masters of Magic 12 Year Old, Ex-Bourbon Cask, 2007, High Spirits, 46%

A Maltiply member's tasting notes and whisky impression.

84 / 100

The earthy peat and smoked-meat notes make an unusual counterpoint to ripe tropical fruit. It sounds savory and bold, with enough fruit to keep that contrast interesting.
