Now what other scotches should I try that have these type of citrus and floral taste profiles. Thanks guys.
spinaker 12 yr
Balblair 1991 vintage
Balblair 2000 vintage
Glenfarclas 17yr +
Glendronach 15 yr revival or Allardice
BenRiach 12 yr Tawny port/ or Pedro Ximenz


the Balblair's are more of the floral citrus type single malts and the Spinaker is more of a honey/ spicey malt but the Glenfarclas,Glendronach, and Benriach are all finished in some sort of sherry wether it be Spanish Oloroso or Pedro Ximenez. You get more of that sweet long lasting finish from the Sherry which isn't quiet as savory as the port but works awfully well for Single malts
