Blimey, what a spirit! Pow! right from the first sip. Six years of age but you'd never guess – the strength's very high and the smoke just hits you like seaweed fire on a windy beach. There's something mezcaly about it, that burnt plastic note but honestly in a good way. Like sniffing new tyres at a garage, strangely addictive. The brine is impressive – capers, sardines, olives, even gherkins in there somewhere. It's like the ocean bottled up. The high smoke ratio keeps going and going, interminable really. But there's this lemon note lifting it to new heights, almost like a crisp white wine cutting through. A hint of oysters too, and beach sand after a storm. I love this. It's young, it's bold, high impact all the way. Crystalline bottling, no nonsense. You just cannot beat this kind of intensity. More of all that please! 🥃 What an amazing young whisky!

Wow, this dram hits you right away – the smoke is mezcaly and intense, with a high smoke ratio that's just powerful. I get this salty, coastal side with seaweed fire and beach sand vibes. Then lemon pops up, lifting it to new heights, pow! Strength's very high, high impact for sure. There's olives and gherkins in there, and hints of white wine and new tyres. The finish is interminable, very long, and I'm mucho impressed. More of all that! Couldn't be nicer, really. 😊 I love this.

哇，第一口下去，那烟熏味简直了，有点像烧焦的塑料，但居然很带感 😊。然后能尝到白葡萄酒的清新，还有点新车轮胎的橡胶味，挺奇妙的。 海洋气息超明显，让我想起生蚝和海藻在火上烤，咸咸的海风味儿。酒精强度很高，“pow!”地一下冲上来，但柠檬的酸甜把它提升到新高度，喝着更活泼。 尾韵长得惊人，interminable啊，满嘴都是咸味和海岸的回忆。烟熏比例超高，六年的陈酿就能这么棒，高冲击力，我简直爱死了！

Right, just poured a dram of this six-year-old and blimey, it’s a proper smoke bomb. High impact from the off, seaweed fire and a sort of burnt plastic thing but genuinely in a good way, like new tyres on hot tarmac. Then there’s this massive briny kick— oysters, capers, sardines, even a whiff of beach sand. The strength's very high yet somehow it stays crystalline and bright, with lemon lifting it to new heights. Loads of olives and a mezcaly vibe that’s more apparent than in older bottlings, less expressive maybe but it just works. White wine and a faint olive oil note float around too. Finish is interminable, really very long. I’m mucho impressed, honestly. More of all that, please. You just cannot beat this young, feisty spirit. Couldn't be nicer. I love this.

Quite warming, with a bit of honey, oak and gentle spice. Feels smooth enough, then a wee peppery kick shows up 🥃 Nice cosy dram for a chilly evening, honestly.
