Nose: wine, smoke First sip: spicy, smokey and salty. Or rather in the other way around. Strong enough to give you a little punch but not much to knock you out at the beginning of the evening. After a few sips, the dram becomes like a pastry on the tongue. Sweeter and rounder. Adding water drops reveals a nice cherry smell. The whisky becomes even saltier. Nothing special comes after it. Finish: liquor and slightly peppery.
