Tasting Notes
"A good example of a whisky that is young but not raw, retaining just enough youth to give it a rugged edge. Honey, apples, and chocolate on the nose, with a hint of sea air. That sea air asserts itself in the taste, in which sea salt, caramel, and biscuits war with youthful, assertive grain. Not entirely refined or wholly balanced, but well-suited for dramatic weather. "
