Nosing: 
Fruity nose particularly apple. raisins - If I didn't know better I would have said this was the nose of a sherried whisky.
Taste:
Rich and biscuity malt. Citrus peel and mixed spices. I feel it could possibly have done with being bottled at 46% for my tastes. I make an effort to taste whiskys without looking at anyone else's notes and I also got the metallic note but just thought it was either a bad bottle or my imagination until I saw Horst's review, very odd.
Finish:
Short with a bit of fruitiness. Dies out very quickly without much fanfare
Comment:
This is a solid OK. Other than that metallic taste which I'm not a big fan of, and the relatively weak finish there isn't much wrong with it. That said, its a bit underwhelming, and I can think of bottles I'd rather get at that price point.
