Bloody hell, that's a proper gold colour in the glass. First whiff hits you with a rush of bandages and camphor, like opening an old first-aid kit. Then comes the tar, even more tar and smoke – absolutely terrific. Makes you think of riding an old Ducati Desmo through a long abandoned Michigan hospital, all that tarry, smoky engine oil mixing with the antiseptic air. 🏍️💨 Taste is immediate, full of tar for sure, but then these little lemons and lemony zests pop through, a fat boy for sure but with a zing. The iodine and medicinal notes stick around, a real punch. Phew! Epitomical, as they say. What a ride. 😮‍💨

刚倒出来就闻到股碘酒味,有点像医院消毒水,但又带点甜。喝下去满嘴都是焦油感,厚厚的,像在嚼焦木头。 突然就冲出柠檬的清爽,诶?居然不违和,像碾碎的柠檬皮混着柏油路。 烟熏味很直接,呼出来像骑老摩托吐出的尾气,但居然有点舒服。 慢慢有股金酒的回忆上来?不是味道,是那种草本感。 最后满嘴都是药膏味和绷带联想,但回甘是明亮的柠檬糖。 Phew!这酒劲儿像在废弃医院里飙摩托,刺激又莫名干净。 有点上头但很过瘾 😂

Blimey, this dram's got a kick! First thing, it hits you with a wave of tar and smoke – like riding an old Ducati through some forgotten hospital ward. 😅 There's this 'good' rubber note, and a huge burst of camphor and menthol, almost medicinal with bandages and antiseptic flashing by. Lemony sharpness cuts through, and it's iodine-rich but somehow very clean. The finish is extremely long, immediate and gold-toned. Phew! Absolutely terrific, epitomical of a big, tarry whisky. A fat boy for sure, with even more tar lingering on. 🏍️💨

Crikey, first sniff and it’s like sticking your head into a medic’s bag from the war. Bandages, iodine, that proper antiseptic wallop. Then a fat slab of tarry rope and camphor. Very clean, mind, but absolutely immediate. No mucking about. Phew! Sip it and you’re riding an old Ducati Desmo through a long-abandoned Michigan hospital, all that menthol, lemons, and more bandages. Gold oiliness, lemony but with a weird “good” rubber note, like fresh inner tubes. Epitomical, as they say. Huge, full of tar, even more tar, and an extremely long finish that just coats your gob with medicinal smokiness. A fat boy for sure. Absolutely terrific. 😮‍💨🔥

Warm and mellow, with a wee bit of honeyed sweetness and soft spice 🥃 Feels cosy, smooth, and a little oaky on the finish. Nice easy sipper.
