Nose

Malty and a little oily: mash tun, bran, bracken and moor. Though there's some soft characters (toasted pineapple, whole nut chocolate, tangerine marmalade) it has a hard edge. Rather blunt.

Palate

Less dry. Sweet, creamy, toffee start, then freshly oiled oak, shoe polish and a sudden drying.

Finish

Toasted cereal.

Comment

Decent, but you get the feeling it needs more time to soften down.
