Nose

Pungent, rich, oily. Peaty but also a lifted, almost floral top note. BIG. Chocolate and cream. Robustly elegant and increasingly complex as it opens.

Palate

A lovely mix of sweet and dry flavours. Very rich and mouth-coating. Almost briny: nuts, lemon, oil and gentle smoke underneath. Has weight and power.

Finish

Slight peppery kick.

Comment

A richly-flavoured malt with a punchy delivery. Another silent still. Bloody typical!
