Remarks:
Very nice smoky whiskey that reminds me of a mixture of a Port Charlotte 10yo and Glenglassaugh Torfa.

Overall I rate this Whisky:

  • Nose:
    Peaty sweet, vanilla, light fruits, floral notes, later comes some ash and ginger as well as some hay. Citrus fruits and grain. Slightly malty

  • Taste:
    very sweet and peaty at the beginning. Light fruits, citrus fruits, grain, malt, vanilla, hay, floral notes. Becoming oily. Then come light nuts and white chocolate

  • Finish:
    malty, sweet. The peat is not as strong here, but still very aromatic. Light fruits and vanilla come through. Oily

Remarks:
Great whiskey with a profile that reminds me of a Glen Scotia. The smoky note in it is particularly similar to a Glen Scotia. Very nice aromas.

Overall I rate this Whisky:

  • Nose:
    lots of citrus fruits and lime, light smoke, vanilla and light nuts in the background. With plenty of time in the glass, herbs, floral notes and a little caramel come

  • Taste:
    Strong citrus and lime aromas, vanilla, light smoke, herbs, meadow flowers, floral notes. A little fruit acid. Creamy and oily. Slightly tart at the end.

  • Finish:
    lots of strong lime and citrus aromas in combination with the fruit acidity and the light smoke
