Part of a fancy whiskey flight at our anniversary dinner.
Nose - ashy smoke and iodine up front but not overpowering, oiled leather, fresh baked bread, sea air, a touch of caramel sweetness
Palette - so oily and rich, strong smoke in front, a damp ashy fire, some sharp metallic iodine, dried fruit and grainy bread, some light sugar sweetness in the background
Finish - the smoke lingers for awhile then fades into the sweeter bread notes, pretty significant burn
