Right then, had a wee dram of this one last night. 🥃 First sniff... got a lot of smoke, but not bonfire smoke. More like... a damp bonfire, maybe some wet peat. 💨 Then underneath, some nice sweetness comes through. Honey, I think, and maybe stewed apple? A bit of vanilla too. First sip... a bit oily, coats the mouth. The smoke hits first again, quite strong. But then, oh! There's a lovely warm spice, like cinnamon or ginger. And a hint of dark chocolate bitterness that I really liked. 🍫 The finish is long and warming. The smoke just... lingers. And leaves a slight dryness, like good strong tea. A proper winter whisky, this one. Not for the faint-hearted! 😄
