Almonds and licorice greet the nose, accompanied by a clear cereal and biscuit component. Dried apricots, orange zest, Williams pears and the fruity side is served. In the background, a slight peaty impression. Beautiful debut, sweet and mineral, the winds on the Breton sea did a good job.
And the peat sensation is amplified on the palate, mineral and smoky, flanking and thickening the flavor of the whisky, with still licorice and dried fruit, orange, chocolate, cereals. Spicy and peppery touch. Three-dimensional, young but not too much.
Fairly long finish of ash, hazelnuts, cereals, with salt and pepper on the lips.
I admit it, I had approached this whisky with few expectations and it really surprised me: not at all banal, full, fun, multifaceted. Being the business card of their whiskeys, this Armorik makes you want to try all the others!
