So far this EC15 SiB 158 is all rich baked cherry and refined rustic oak, with healthy dollops of vanilla and caramel. Any iteration of an EC SiB can tend to swing wildly around its flavor profile over the life of the bottle. But so far so GREAT on this one. Cheers! These aren’t worth the secondary 💰 they often go for but they sure are good. Like an extra spiced up Eagle Rare. Cheers! New notes on ARDNAMURCHAN 10 YEAR. Tap that 🔗 IN BIO for deets on this exceptional milestone outing from one of Scotland’s great newer distilleries—giving Springbank a run for its money! Sláinte!

Now also on THREADS and BLUESKY 🧵🦋🥃
