pale white wine
air Nose
you really feel the impact of the 1st fill barrel, as this one's rather easier, with touches of bananas, orange blossom, some celeriac and beets… That's nice and it does feel natural. The background remains on porridge, apples and citrus. With water: unusual whiffs of silk, old wardrobe, fur… And wool, which is more common in malt whisky, we agree
