Tasting Notes
Appearance: Honey gold
Nose: Almost violent Mega melted butter baby vomit. peat, Peat, peaT, peAT, pEAT, and PEAT... Bacon, salt, pepper, cinnamon, honey-glazed ham, hot-buttered popcorn, slightly grassy, pound cake
Palate: Big heat Buttery sweetness turning to cinnamon fire, minty, dry, peppery, oak
Finish: Explosive, then long, steady burn, dry ashy mouthfeel. Like swallowing a tear-gas canister, the smoke permeates your entire upper body, and leaks out your eyes and ears. The mind disconnects from the body and you transcend the cosmos like Dave Bowman...
Conclusion: You won't be the same whisky drinker again after this one. The aftertaste stayed with me until the next morning and even my morning pee reeked of it. This is one exhilarating dram!
