13 years old, distilled 11th June 2003, 62.3% abv, first fill ex-bourbon barrel, 204 bottles, dram price B

The nose has strawberry and cream, coconut and a little hint of lemon. The mouthfeel is thin with no cling. The body has lemon, cinnamon and coconut. The finish is short but intense, full of cinnamon.

Water brings out thin, rapidly expanding whorling that settles into lingering mottling. The nose gains more strawberries and loses the coconut. The body gains chilli pepper and loses some of the lemon. The finish is unchanged.

Too spicy for me.
