Brand: Glen Scotia
Place of Purchase: Drinks by the Dram Advent Calendar
Country/Region of Origin: Campbelltown, Scotland
Tasting Conditions: Room temperature, neat

Finish: Smooth smooth smooth with a sherry note at the end
Nose: Apples and oak
Notes: So, I am back after an almost 2-year hiatus. I bought a Whisky Advent Calendar from Master of Malt's Drinks by the Dram line. I am pretty pedestrian in my single-malt choices (Glenmorangie, Balvenie, Dalwhinnie), so I decided to spend this holiday season trying new whiskies (and new wines, but I will post those after Christmas). The advent calendar was pricey, but definitely cheaper than trying 25 whiskies at my local pub.
I feel bad for drinking this whisky. My Scot buddy is a McDonald and this is a Campbell brew, but it is tasty. Smooth as silk and sweet as candy. This is good stuff.
