12 Years The Nectar d'Or Extra Matured Sauternes Casks Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Oh hey! Leave it to @Paul Treadway Huntington Beacher Bum to get me into a Scotch. This is delectable. My usual quibble with scotch is the smoke and this one has a whisper of it but it only serves to ballast the vanilla, honey and...marmalade? Of the rest of this. Tried neat and on a big cube o’ ice in a chilled glass and definitely recommend the latter. It is an evenings worth of delicate sipping. A ballerina. A delicate scotch. I’m a fan. I eat my anti-scotch words this one is for me.

Very light, vanilla

Every year share a bottle of this on my birthday. Awesome Scotch with amazing phenolics. '88 Krug Rose for breakfast!

Smooth and oaky with a short finish. Warms me up.

Honey, green apple, orange zest. Vanilla finish.

Wonderfully smooth and a hint of sweet honey on the tongue. This delectable nectar of the gods is an easy favorite.

Smooth but very rich aromas, dried fruits, complex, high abv.

Whisky + Sauternes = Fave :-)

I do not like any hint of honey or too much sweetness. This has both. Not for me.

Beautifully smooth with devilishly scant heat, smothered in créme brûlée, lemon curd, peaches and honey, and white wine. Far from being too "poncy" for a scotch, this cask treatment is a great change of pace from sherry and port.
