The nose starts off strong of oak and barley sugar with straw and a distinct creaminess. A slight ripe fruitiness cones through, the use of used cooperage really shines here.
The palate starts with a burst of sharp, black pepper, before transitioning into creamy oak, barley sugar and straw. Creamy notes round out the whisky but is delightfully intense, highlighting its age.
The finish is medium with a lingering mild pepperiness, with creamy oak and straw backing it up in perfect balance. A wonderful whisky, perfectly highlighting what age can do for Scotch. Dangerously easy to sip on.
