Nose

Coffeed with classic pot still hard graininess. Almost salty with a touch of sherried dried fruit adding sweetness. Slightly herbal with developing creamy vanilla notes.

Palate

Richer and juicier with barley and raisinated fruits. The pot still character is pretty hidden but attempts to assert itself. Subtle chocolate and citrus notes on the middle. \n

Finish

Long and grainy with a mouth-watering finish and slightly woody, mocha after-taste.

Comment

Enjoyable whiskey. The wood was a little intrusive on the palate, but the finish \nwas superb.
