Tasting Notes
"The whisky begins with notes of bacon, beach bonfire smoke, and cigar ash. Dark fruit accents appear in the background on the nose. It has a medium body and is a bit grippy on the palate. The fruit flavors are tough to find at first, but further tastes intensifies their presence. Still, the peaty flavors dominate the dram. "
