Nose

Stunning honey depth with a touch of mint and eucalyptus adding oaky firmness. Rare and glorious balance for is age.

Palate

A big honey-oak arrival that is waxy and chewy but filters out into more controlled spice.

Finish

A bitter-sweet honeyed saltiness, then thumping arrival of malt and oak in tandem.

Comment

This is big, bruising, uncompromising whisky of very high class.
