Finish: Leather, bread, black pepper. Oak/wood on the aftertaste
I tried this shortly after the 1792 Small Batch and I've just noticed my tasting notes are very similar - but this is very different whiskey! This is concentrated, hot and with a lovely mouthfeel. The spiciness is well integrated and there is a lovely intensity to it. Nice.
Came joint fourth out of the six drams, with 11% (4 votes) of the final vote for favourite of the night. 78% (28 votes) of those present said they enjoyed the whiskey.
