Right, so I've been sipping this one for a bit now...
👃 Nose: Getting loads of honey and vanilla at first, then a wee hint of smoke comes through. Quite warm, like sitting by a fire on a cold night.
🥃 Palate: Ooh, that's smooth! Caramel and butterscotch hit me straight away 🍯 Fruity notes too - maybe apple or pear? There's a gentle spice that builds up, cinnamon perhaps
The oak comes through nicely, not too heavy. And y'know what, I'm picking up a bit of dark chocolate towards the end 🍫
Finish: Medium length, that smokiness lingers which I'm proper chuffed about. A touch of toffee sweetness stays on the tongue
Overall impression - this one's a cracker tbh 👌 Really warming, would be perfect for a wee dram on a winter evening. The balance between sweet and smoky is spot on.
Would def have this again, no question about it 🥳
