Right, so... this whisky. 🥃 Nose first — bit of a charachter, innit? Sort of... heavy berries? Like blackcurrant maybe, but with this savoury, almost... rye-like edge. And sugar. Obviously.
Palate-wise... mmm. Thick. Oily. That berry thing comes back, but it’s not sweet-sweet. More like... stewed fruit with a handful of soil? Weird, but in a good way. 👍 Aye, and there’s a woody, almost dusty note, maybe from the barrel? Lingers a bit.
Finish is where it gets ya. 🔥 Warm. Not burny-warm, just... present. That berry-rye-savoury mix hangs about. Leaves you thinking, "What *was* that?" Quite the journey, tbh. Not a casual sipper, this one. Requires attention.
