LismoreSingle Malt 15 Year Scotch Whiskey is a classic take on the Speyside tradition.“Mystery malts” like the ones bottled by Lismore often get a bad rap fromaficionados because the origin of the hops cannot be confirmed. That said, ifyou avoid this selection from Lismore because you aren’t sure what distillerythe hops originated from, you are going to miss out on a rich scotch with acomplexity that is deceiving. Anything considered “ordinary” about this maltfrom the outside looking in is quickly disputed by scents and flavors you’llenjoy from the first sip.

Its light-caramelcolor is deceiving, because the flavor is surprisingly full of body, and thefinish lasts much longer than other bottlings from the brand. When it hits yournose, butterscotch, fruits, honey, spices and vanilla create a sweet flavorthat perfectly leads into the malt. When it hits your palate, the rich flavorreally starts to surface as the fruits become riper, the honey sweetens and anearthy quality balances them out. While rich in flavor, the 15-year fromLismore has a soft texture that surprisingly brings some heat — comparable to a100-proof malt.
