Glass:
Munich whisky fair
Colour:
Honey, light amber
Nose:
Very smoky with lots of summer fruits (peach, apricot).
After some minutes in the glass this turns predominently to
wood-smoke.
Palate:
Very light for its 58% and what I
can best describe as "fruit, sweat and tears" with a background
of fruity bilge pumps, all in a nice way.
With
4 drops of water: Lighter and fruitier on both nose and
palate.
Finish:
Long and fruity, with an emphasis
on the fruity.
Overall Impression: A real surprise for a 58% 5y Islay
whisky, this is very good and most enjoyable without the
harshness seen in some so young.
