Tasting Notes

Colour

yellow gold

air Nose

at the intersection of some sumptuous medicinal peat (camphor, bandages, pinewood smoke, various balms) and tropical fruits led by mangos plus citrus led by oranges. One of malt whisky's most seminal noses, while this one didn't totally indulge in tropical fruits

restaurant Palate

fresh mangos and a medicinal peat smoke tangoing forever, the latter keeping the lead, as it did on the nose. Maybe that's because of the higher strength, 90° US proof meaning 45% vol. instead of the usual 43 or even 40% vol

timer Finish

long and with more and more salinity, totally geared towards oysters until the mangos would fight back. Stunning mangos! And there's even a drop of gewurztraminer, with rose petals and litchees. Yep!
