Michel Couvreur Overaged Whisky 700ml

Although the various whiskies in this blend were distilled in Scotland, it was then moved to France's Burgundy region to age—so it's not technically Scotch. The whiskies in the blend are over 12 years old and aged in ex-Sherry casks. The end result is a nut-brown hue and rich dried date and caramel scent. The big, rounded palate surprises with smoke, underpinned with hints of Sherry, dried fig, and caramel, with a long baking spice finish.
