Nosing: Fruit Apple Banana Green Apple Pear Melon Tropical Fruit just loads of fruit. subtle vanilla Vanilla in the background Sweet Honey

Taste: Fruit Peach Pineapple Apple Banana Green Apple Coconut Melon Tropical Fruit Kiwi maybe it's just my palate right now but this has all sorts of fruit. Not a ton of oak, but some Oak Vanilla Heather Sweet

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