Words of Whisky (85)

It's not as good as it is complex. Do you follow? There's lots to discover here, more than I expected even, but not everything is additive.
Nose
Pleasant but quite closed, to be honest. Let’s say I’ve nosed more expressive malts. Hints of liquorice root accompanied by blackcurrant jam, dried apricots and chalk, but also some Cavendish & Harvey’s mixed fruit drops. Boy, did I love those as a kid. There’s a sliver of leather too. And then finally a soft burnished feel teetering on sulphur.
Taste
The port is much more noticeable. It has a slightly vinous mouthfeel. Slivers of figs, dates, blackberries and milk chocolate, but also gentle baking spices. Then rum-soaked raisins as well, followed by a touch of burnt toast and just a touch of gunpowder.
Finish
Medium length. Lingering spices, some fennel and dark cacao.
