Can. Black-ish pour. Aroma of speculaas herbs, cinnamon, pumpkin, fruity whisky and caramel. Taste has bitter speculaas herbs, pumpkin spice, fruity whisky, caramel, sugar, sweet figs and malt. This is extremely sweet, perhaps a less sweet whisky would have been better to balance the sweet spices.

Greige head, dwindling with lace over near-black beer. Bit soapy nose, faint roast, sweet-floral. Not much whisky. Aroma of soft children's sweets. Again very floral, perfumey flavour. Sweetish, with liquorice, soft roast, artificial fruitflavouring. As to the Speyside....? Medium to well-bodied, very slick to oily. Alcoholheat. Perfumey, sweet, terribly disappointing, this one.
