Tasting Notes: The short, squatty stills of Strathisla, the spiritual home of the Chivas blend contribute a honey and heather rich single malt to this aged classic. The 12yr versions of Chivas and Dewar's are simply EXCELLENT values for the money. Massive floral and heather attack on the nose with honey and lemon. On the palate, creamy malt, a light earthy and floral note then a light alpine liqueur note, sweet, and deeply earthy in the most drinkable way.
