Westland American Single Malt

Dark caramel and burn on the nose. Fiery oak on the pallete, good burn but just a hair too thin. Would've loved some more richness. Some vanilla sweetness carries on to the tail with the wood, the proof helps it tingle for a while. Mostly oak flavor, not unpleasant.

Nose: dry cider, bready, yeasty, sweet dark fruits and a touch of bbq Taste: Sweet, juicy, bbq, dark chocolate

The interplay between the prayed malt and the chocolate malt is extraordinary. From the nose you think all smoke but then a nice bitter chocolate taste hits followed by the dark fruits of sherry. A definite must have.
