Tasting Notes:
Producer's Notes

Bright sunlit copper

A strong nose, this whisky definitely needs some air, give it some time to open up in the glass; the wait is well worth it. Slightly olive oil notes present, then some big tannins bursting forward. Bordeaux wine drinkers will love this particular whisky.

A whisky that would go exceptionally well with a bitter dark chocolate dessert or a heavy cigar. Some more tannins mixed with parma violets.

Big finish, light smokiness. Overall a big robust, yet smooth whisky.
