Tastes

I get the medicinal herbs on the palate. Oily. Smoky for sure but not as much as other ones.

Agree on the vanilla nose. Burn on the palate. I get the caramel and corn too.

Rough. Not even close to the 10 year old. Practically awful. Sorry. Medicinal peat. Super short finish. One try is enough.

A full barbecue (brine, a dead cow and tobacco ash) topped out with sea salt made by roof layers turning over the barbecue meat with hands dipped in black tar.

Chocolate etc. Greatest whisky according to my lady.

Long aftertaste. Sweetness. Banana on the nose, and taste - the green dry one that sticks to your tongue. Good! No smoke. Some pepper. Even some metallic hint on the way end of the aftertaste. Caramell/sugar sweetness. Round and oily taste.

Short finish. Honey nose. Floral. Some sugar. Agree on the tobacco/cigar taste that makes your tongue curl. Rather bitter. Probably better without ice.
