Auchentoshan Valinch 2011 700ml

A superb cask strength Auchentoshan. Valinch is named after the giant pipette used to remove whisky from casks for tasting. This whisky is very fruity. Banoffee pie, apple peel and mixed peels greet the nose with hints of figs, dates, oak and nutmeg. Quite oily too. On the palate banana again, but this time cooked with sugar and butter. More than a little malt too, some charred oak, vanilla spice and cinnamon late palate.
