Tasting Notes
"The aroma has an opening of rubbery sulfur before turning to leather laced with smoked honey. A mixture of toasted both old and new wood resin follows, with acetone and citric notes. On the palate, the whisky changes immensely to smoky toasted wood with sweet peat dancing in the background. Smooth vanilla breaks on to the tongue, with the acetone resin turning to caramel. The finish is amazingly short with cloying resin and slight vanilla coming in ever smaller waves that fall away to yesterday's tastes. "
