Nosing: Früchte Apfel Banane Grüner Apfel Birne Melone Tropische Früchte just loads of fruit. subtle vanilla Vanille in the background Süße Honig

Taste: Früchte Pfirsich Ananas Apfel Banane Grüner Apfel Kokosnuss Melone Tropische Früchte Kiwi maybe it's just my palate right now but this has all sorts of fruit. Not a ton of oak, but some Eiche Vanille Heide Süße

Finish: Früchte Eiche Süße Floral

Comment: This is pretty good for Glenlivet. US release, so bottled a little above 43% for us. It is a fruit bomb.
