Single Malt — Speyside, Scotland

Since “Oh Lord!!” are the first two words that come to mind doing the nose of this, the theme of the dram is definitely “Mercedes Benz” by Janis Joplin. Anyway, the nose brought sauerkraut, of all things, along with some rotten pears, unripened apples, and sawdust. Not a good way to start. Even at a mere 46% ABV, it’s a hot mess, and suffers from just feeling rushed. Thin mouthfeel, subtle lemony pledge finish, but I guess it’s thankfully dry. Just a “no go” from start to finish. The only saving grace is that it’s not waxy as well. 1.75.
