Whoa, an almost Talisker doppelgänger! A touch of water's Scotch mist reveals omission of chill-filtration. Very sunny yellow-gold color, hopefully without added color. Extra points: 46% abv. The nose opens with a pall of rich woody smoke hanging over Mossy coastal forest. Baked apples, stewed pears and apricot notes peek out. Full, oily mouthfeel on the palate, sweet and malty with orange marmalade, apricot preserves and a pleasant floral soapiness that accumulates. Finish is very long, starting with a rush of clove and spicy ginger before retreating into smoldering oak. Salutations due to our hellacious Pranay for the sample! I'll be seeking a fifth... Dry glass: sweet buttery malt.
Honey and light peat smoke on the nose. Touch of salt and pears on the palate. Great mouthful, with a sweet and peppery long finish. Delicious and rare gem of a dram.
Nose: good amount of peat, vanilla, floral, oak, and brine
Taste: same as nose, some peat, oak follow with brine, little pepper and hints of vanilla. Quite oily, thin bodied. Hmm maybe some citrus. The taste is simple yet so beautiful crafted.
Aftertaste: medium long
