Tasting Notes
"The aroma has a moderate amount of peat smoke along with a tangy dried fruit (apricots, orange peels, dates), dusty books, and ash. The whisky feels a little tight on the palate with a medium amount of barrel spices. There's some breakfast porridge with dried apples and bittersweet finish. The sweetness is more from dried fruits than sugary caramel or vanilla so if you're looking for a less sweet whisky with a moderate amount of peat smoke, you're in luck. Wouldn't add more than a splash of water, if that. Finish is a little spicy, peaty and fruity. "
