Nose - pineapple, vanilla cream, orange and lemon zest, honey, grass, mild peat, rotting wood, rubber band, moderate ethanol burn. Taste - sour apple, salted toffee, orange creamsicle, chocolate, tannic oak, honey, grass, mild peat smoke, citrus zest, moderate alcohol bite, finishing medium length with bitter wood, sour fruit, and toffee flavors. This is much less enjoyable than the 12 year. You can definitely taste the influence from the bourbon barrels, particularly with the caramel and vanilla notes. While there are some nice flavors here, they are overwhelmed by a sourness and bitterness that dominate the palate.
