The Greatest Premium Whisky Advent Calendar Day 15: Cameronbridge 2006 - 17 Year Old Lowlands Single Grain Scotch Whisky
Wow this is smokey, and has a bit of a meaty flavor to it. It reminds me of a basque style cheesecake for some reason - it's not sweet though. Interesting.

The Greatest Premium Whisky Advent Calendar Day 14: BLACKENED Cask Strength Vol.4 A Blend of Straight American Whiskeys
Wow. This is a lot of things all at once. It has this harsh burst that mellows out into an intense burnt ends type flavour. Definitely needs to breathe a little first.

The Greatest Premium Whisky Advent Calendar Day 8: Port Dundas 2006 - 15 Yr Old Lowlands Single Grain Scotch Whisky
This is one of those that has a flavor but no one knows what. It's harsh, but spicy. There's a hint of floral-ness to it that's not bad. It's hard to say it's good though.
