Tasting Notes

"The whisky starts on plenty of malted barley notes and a good amount of smoke. Still quite spirit-y and metallic, and quite intense. There's a whisper of pineapple sweetness and pear skin in the background. The palate is malty and smoky, accompanied by vanilla and some plastic-esque notes. Some mild spices, slightly drying. The finish is on the shorter side."
