Nose: ⠀ ⠀ Wet hay, Lemon peel, Citrus, Fresh, Clean malt, Slight ethenol bite, Green tea⠀ ⠀ *** with three Teaspoons of water Added***⠀ ⠀ Palate: ⠀ Sweet soft vanilla, malt Sugars, very fresh lemon peel citrus and grassy elements, it is edgy but clean with only a slight spike note. I will say, I feel this is very malt forward and distillate focused. The cask feels present but not overpowering. Slightly sour but not unwelcome to balance off the initial sweetness. ⠀ ⠀ Finish: ⠀ Light oak tannin but very good all spice and nutmeg come up. Lemon peel comes back as well. A lingering sweet oak and sugars arrive. I get almost a quick Burst of cotton candy.⠀ ⠀ ⠀ Conclusion:⠀ A very enjoyable dram. It has no tricks and it doesn’t pretend to be something it’s not. It is honest and malt forward using the casks I feel as a welcome companion to enhance not overbear. I will say it does improve with some time open. I highly suggest this to anyone who may come across it. Cheers🥃
