Glenlivet advises that you add a splash of water to this scotch before tasting, and I agree. Without it, though it's a typical 80 proof, it's just a bit prickly on the nose. The water softens this and opens the bouquet a bit. This deep gold scotch is rather dry, and is not at all vanilla tasting. Whether it is the Limousin wood or what, this scotch does have a woody flavor, along with some mild floral notes and a spiciness that is reminiscent of hot cinnamon fireballs. While the French Oak did not impart the complexity that I had imagined it would, this remains a good scotch, and a bottle that is well worth finishing.
