Right, just had a wee dran of this… nosing it blind, gettin a right mad mix of earthy, nutty tones straight off, then it’s all toffee apples 🍎🍬 and a whiff of iodine-drenched campfire smoke 💨🔥 On the palate it’s propper bonkers — malt loaf, more toffee, some juicy citrus pith and a weirdly delicious kiss of umami and coastal brine 🌊 Mid-palate, the oak starts hummin, spicy almost like cinnamon and cracked pepper, then back to this rich, almost leathery dried fruit. Finish hangs about for ages, salty-sweet, a bit of vanilla cream and that peaty, iodine tug that keeps whisperin “one more sip” 🥃👌 Defo a noisy, complex dram — not shy at all but somehow it all holds togeather. Love it when a whisky just does its own thing, ye know? 😵💫👍
