the balvenie doublewood – aged 12 years

It was a smooth finish...

It was a smooth finish on a full flavored scotch. Better than scotch priced twice. I was impressed with this product.

Peat??

This used to be my favorite whiskey. Haven't had it in a while but just bought a bottle and it is very peaty. Not at all what it used to (or is supposed to) taste like. Could this be a bottling error? Weird. I'm a bit upset because for the price, it's a waste as I'm not into the heavy smoke. Was really looking forward to the sweet creaminess after not having for some time. My ratings are based on this bottle. What I expected from previous would be five star for sure.
