Tasting Notes
"Sweet notes of icing sugar on the nose and a touch of barbecue smoke. There's also some smoked barley husks, vanilla essence and a few floral touches as well. You'll find a creamy mouthfeel and sweet arrival followed by a barrage of earthy smoke on the palate, chili peppers and white pepper. It's powerful alright. Somewhat drying, but also notes of orange and milk chocolate. A cracking whisky with a complexity on the palate that's almost unexpected. "
