I had a little tasting of my own yesterday. This is part of a comparison I made on my new blog: maltsofpandemonium.blogspot.be

Colour: sunglow gold.

Nose: a fresh nose, oak wood, with notes of vanilla with a whiff of citrus. But also very sweet: chocolate, , coconut, fudge and caramel.

Mouth: a nice body: thick and oily. A table full of delicacies: caramel, toffee, butterscotch, gingerbread and vanilla sticks.With some fruity notes, cider apples and lemon zest and malty undertones.

Finish: medium long, sweet and malty, caramel with some slight peppery notes.

Conclusion: a fine, entry-level malt, a true classic with a quite interesting palate, You won't regret buying this, should be part of every whisky lover's liquor cabinet.

@Pandemonium, nice review. I like Glengoyne 12, its brighter/sharper than the 17y. It is also fairly affordable. If you get the chance try the 17y, you can see where the 12y comes from. I agree, belongs in my cabinet, very good neutral scotch.
