Bruichladdich Legacy 6, 34 year old, 41%, $550
The sixth and last bottling from the Legacy series. Legacy 6 is a marriage of six casks from 1965, 1970, and 1972. Soft and mellow on the nose and palate, with unbelievably restrained oak for such a mature whisky. Delicious notes of coconut, soothing vanilla, caramel custard, and banana cream, peppered with spice notes of cinnamon, mint, and teaberry that emerges on a soft finish that fades out gently. A fitting end to the Legacy series. I’m sad to see them go.

Dear John,
Could you please post your reviews of the others in the Legacy series to compare.
Cheers,
Bill
Bill, if I had them, I would post them. I didn’t get review samples of a few of them. (Importing and PR issues on their end.) The others are posted up on the Buyer’s Guide section of the Malt Advocate webste (http://maltadvocate.com/buyer.asp).
