Finish:
Comment: Green apples are very present in this whisky, some say pears also, but I only was able to pick out green apple, both on the nose and the taste. This whisky is very simple, not much to figure out, but is still very good. There is a very impactful spiciness which takes over after the green apple dissipates, but is not over powering. This finish is somewhat dry but short and leaves me wanting more. Very good whisky, very easy sipping, well priced, can’t go wrong.

Good whisky for in the summer, great taste and what I got out of it was mostly apple and pear enhanced with sherry influences and a caramel sweet.
Very fresh, not too bad when it comes to the taste of alcohol for a 12 year old whisky.
Got some of the oomph of younger whiskies but is still decently sophisticated on arrival. Don't expect too much from the finish though.
4/5 for me, not because it is the best but because I enjoyed it a lot.
Unfortunately I can't tell much about the nose, haven't written it down and my bottle of Glenfiddich 12 y.o. is empty.
