Nose: This smells so damn good. Vanilla, floral, oak, cherry, green apple...so much to discover. Honey. Orange. Palate: tasting a ton of new oak and spice on the initial taste, woody, wisps of smoke. lots of sweet fruity flavors mixed with honey as well. Ends on a briny, salty flavor. Might be the end of the wood notes. Mouthfeel: This feels so damn full, oily and spicy. Long lasting. I feel this sucker all the way down in my stomach. Must be the 51.4%. Worth the money and more. Not many whiskies capture my attention like this, but I enjoy this one a ton.
