Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Deep mahogany to near-black; extremely slow, viscous legs
Nose
Mature and complex — leather, chocolate pudding, clove, peppercorn, aged balsamic vinegar. Smoke appears as ancient incense rather than campfire. Deep and contemplative
Palate
Fruitcake and baked orange with clove and peppercorn. Red velvet cake and red currant. A wave of minty black pepper and citrus, followed by a beautiful mingling of sweet and savoury — rum and raisin character balanced by a truffle-like, salty umami quality. Extraordinary complexity
Finish
Extremely long finish. Leather, ancient oak, and a spiritual quality to the fading smoke. Truffle and umami linger alongside dried fruit and dark chocolate. A meditative whisky
