Tasting Notes
"A whisky with a slight dirty edge to it. It is quite meaty, with stewed fruits, but also honey and beeswax. Finally a hint of milk chocolate and ginger. The palate is sweet, yet dry and with a subtle sourness. The oak shavings and spices work well with the dark chocolate. Good, decent whisky."
