Tasting Notes
"This starts on surprising nutty notes on the nose, followed by soft peatiness. On the palate, the same nuttiness is still there, but the whisky becomes far more expressive and complex. Yes, it is young and quite punchy, with spiciness and peat, but it is well balanced by notes of vanilla, hints of coconut, touches of fresh grass and oiliness. If you give it a bit of time in mouth, everything appears step by step in a very elegant blend of aromas. "
