Nose: ethanol, dense corn fruit, sherry and dark fruit, oak chips, smoked brisket, molasses, saddle leather, eucalyptus, menthol, burnt brown sugar. Palate: immediate bite and barrel spice. Brown sugar, smoked jerkey, mint, clove. Long creamy & rich oakey smoke finish. One of the most intriguing whiskies I have ever had. Almost like one part Laphroaig, one part bourbon, and one part sherry. An amazing journey for you smeller and your taste buds!
