Overall: This whisky offers a compelling balance of dry peat and lemony bourbon notes, reminiscent of an Ardmore yet boasting its own unique character. The medium finish is initially hot and dry but transitions into a sweetness that lingers, exhibiting a complex and engaging profile.
As a reviewer, I found the Caperdonich 1996 The Distillery Reserve Collection to be a delightful expression of Speyside whisky making. The intricate blend of dry peat and lemon bourbon notes makes it quite likable, and its medium, hot, and slightly acidic finish adds an extra layer of depth. The exclusive nature of this whisky, with only 324 bottles available, makes it a true collector's gem.
