Nose

Oily, big and peachy (and come to think of it, beachy). Whisky-saturated barrels. A strangely appetising mix of apricot, ripe fruit and wet oilskins.

Palate

Lush and rounded with a rich, deep almost leathery structure. Unctuous and fruity. Balanced.

Finish

Big, long and oily.

Comment

Seems like a younger whisky, if so it has held its own very well in some pretty extraordinary company.
