Overall
Score
6.9
Nose
Malty, leathery with some soft fruit and a slightly feinty note. Water brings out smoky notes oak, vanilla.
Palate
Some smokiness here as well though a fairly dry mid-palate. Water thins it very disappointingly.
Finish
A little feinty.
Comment
Disappointing. Seems to have the elements of a good whisky but nothing has knitted.
