Nose

Rich, muscular, sherried nose: liquorice, tar, runny treacle, incense. Water brings a light mintiness with a drift of perfumed smoke.

Palate

Big soft and sweet. Treacle again, this time with cold tea, chocolate orange and beautiful balance between grain and malt.

Finish

Long and soft.

Comment

Cutty with rippling well-oiled muscles. Well done!
