I’m not usually a big fan of this style of malted whiskey but it packs some flavor. The taste is an immediate hit of strong but balanced medicinal notes.

Really like the intensity on this one. Has the nice rich peated flavor that pairs well with a little water or some large rocks.

Great light flavor.

Nose very much comes off like a Laphroaig, but way more subtle on the tongue. Very drinkable, and far less smoke flavor than typical.

• dark chocolate
• coffee bean

Flavor is very intense. Not bad, but def not my thing.

• light floral

Honestly, it’s good. No burn for being barrel proof. Strong banana tones. Overall really enjoyable if you want something sweet.

Really brings out the flavor with a bit of water - or ice in tonight’s case.
