8/4/9/4/17 Really, really big whisky notes. Loads of oak, and a ton of peat. This is earthy, herbal and full of liquorice. Damn fine.

Sniff: Peaty, very soft & very old red leather seats found in an old ballroom, red gummy bears, wet tobacco leaf, & a touch of acetone. Sip: raisins, the inherent smoke and gentle toasty notes from the whisky, shortie biscuit snap, & drying oak.

Intense, dark roast malts, peat, burnt toast, intense whisky, boozy notes. Hazy, very dark brown, medium, creamy, beige head. Light bitter. Intense whisky, oak, boozy, dark roast malts, dry, earthy bitterness, soft carb, full bod. Very nice, very punchy.
