Tastes

Nose: heavy oak, dark chocolate, wood char, hint of dark cherry. Red apple. Taste: dark chocolate and heavy oak. Honey dripped on peaches and raisins and fuji apples. Light whisper of floral notes. Finish strongly of burnt caramel and cherry and red apple. Very oily. Tastes like eagle rare but deeper aged / the barrels are burnt more. Water collapses the nose and taste into sweet caramel and fruit

Nose: Caramel apple, grassy leaves, toasted marshmallow. Taste: bananas and apples with caramel sauce Water adds more sweet vanilla notes

Nose: light honey, pears, rum raisins, cinnamon and light oak. Taste: heavy sherry notes with bitter almond and honey. Cinnamom and charted oak take over toward the end with a hint of marzipan and sherry funk. The aging lets the other notes of the sherry come out more beyond the fruity notes. After tasting the nose becomes sweeter with more toffee and dark brown sugar Nose after water is even more fruity. Taste becomes more floral and malty

Nose: apple, honey, pears, slight lemon. Taste: very sweet honey and apple and pear and light citrus with a sweet brown sugar finish. Light floral and vanilla. Almost chocolate and oak. Appley notes come out more on the palette as it sits.

Nose: salty peat, white nectarine, milk chocolate, oak, Taste: heavy peat and parsley / herbal note with a light peach backing and apple note with a chocolately finish. Light honey notes as well as banana. Water tampens down the peat leading to more chocolate and sweet honey notes

Nose: classic laphraoig peat, honey with a slight hint of almonds, white grapes and a hint of dark grapes, light bacon grease. Taste: base laphroaig with a very sweet mid palette. Honey and stewed fruits. Very strong peaty finish almost salty and peppery. Water is desperately needed here. It turns the nose into very lovely stewed fruits with honey and port, almost a jammy quality. Peat takes a back seat but is still somewhat present giving way to oak. Taste is then an intense oaky peppery bite with the fruits and peat. More water makes it even better with the peat up front then going into the jammy stewed fruits.

Nose: dense honey, plum, figs, apples / peaches. Light oak and grain. Taste: honey and fruit cake grain, peaches and green apples. Light fig / grape jam note.

Nose: standard japanese honey, light lemon, pear, shortbread. Almost a bit of fig, light peat, and chocolate. Taste: strong honey and fruity pear with the fig and dark syrupy sherry. Floral with notes of honeysuckle and rose hips

Nose: heavy peach and apple with a strong vanilla. Light hint of spiciness and dark caramel. Hint of citrus after tasting it. Taste: heavy oak up front gives way to a sweet vanilla with a very spicy cinnamon finish. Fruity notes sneak their way into the mid palette. Water buries the fruit notes and brings out the sweeter vanilla and caramrl notes Alright on its own but it definitely would seem like a good for cocktails
