[Good/Very Good] New release from Dun Beagan, Balmenach 1990, 25 years old. It has notes of orange, vanilla, and cream with a well-balanced oakiness. The grainy character is present without being overpowering, and there are elements that give a sense of richness to the sweetness, resulting in a well-balanced flavor. It doesn't have any special individuality, but it feels like a very good bourbon cask that has matured well. #Balmenach (BALMENACH)
