whiskynotes:Nose: highly grassy and mineral, with raw wool, limestone and Matcha tea. Hints of moss and soaked grains. Sea spray and peat. Lots of lemons, subtle kiwi and pears. Slightly sharp and youngish but pleasant. A little mint after a while. Mouth: sweet peat, sweet barley, with raw wool and iodine. Quite some almond roundness too. Sea salt and pepper. Leafy notes and herbs, as well as hints of walnuts. Finish: long, sweet and salty. Hints of hay and a chocolaty finale.
Punchy, straightforward whisky, as young as you can go without bottling immature spirit. This has traces of Laphroaig (smokier than other Caol Ila), albeit in a juicier way. Very clean and simply flawless.
