Nose

Minty! Quite smoky with clean malt, an earthy aroma. An intense heather/lavender lift. This highly-scented smoke intensifies with water. And time.

Palate

The perfumed smoke emerges fairly quickly. It's sweet but there's something unbalanced about it.

Finish

Oak grips slightly.

Comment

Did someone throw a bunch of dried lavender in the kiln? There's something about this intense fragrance in old Glen Gariochs which spoils the balance for me.
