Nose

Rich and quite fat. Chocolate-covered raisin with a hint of creosote and treacle. Yet still very pure with some complexity. Shows maturity.

Palate

Thick and very chewy, like melting toffee in the mouth balanced by an intense, savoury edge which then shifts into prunes macerated in brandy. Huge impact.

Finish

Dusty and lightly tannic.

Comment

If you like your whisky in yer face then this is for you.
