Tasting Notes
"Somewhat closed and shy, which might be because of the high abv. Notes of fermented mash and cherries, with plenty of barley husks and toffee. Finally a whiff of leather and subdued orange notes. The palate is sweet at first with some caramel and fudge, but also plenty of spices and fairly oak-forward. A challenging whisky and adding water is recommended."
