There has been some debate in recent years about the desire of
the whisky industry to drop the age statement from bottles and let the
quality of the whisky speak for itself.
Of course the ever suspicious consumer thought this was just a way of selling younger whisky so that the industry could increase their profits.
If the Edradour Port Matured is anything to go by then no-one should be worried. It's just 6 years old but I'm sure you could convince some old fart that it was 15.
I'm slightly coloured blind (like many males) but I'm sure it looks very pink in the glass. That aside it has great aroma, pallete and finish. Surpringly smooth for a 6 year old, it still has that malty, nutty flavour that Edradour is famous for, but the port has added a sweetness and depth that makes the whole experience complete.
A great whisky.
