Just had a sip of this one – it's oily with a graphite oil slickness, pretty unsexy and austere, honestly. Dry as anything, with grassy straw and a hint of lemon. Mineral and soot notes come through, like heavy green tea, giving it a full, assertive profile, but it lacks a little more power. Old Highlands style, very elegant. Shoe polish on the nose, smoky with a bit of pepper. Sweet and rounded things peek out, but that cardboardy finish lingers. 🥃

Proper smoky hit on the nose, loevly. 😶‍🌫️ Got a bit of wet peat and bonfire ash. Taste? Oh crikey, it's all honey and stewed apples to start. Then some clove and vanilla come through. Quite rich. Finish is long, dry, with a salty tang. Like seaside driftwood. 🌊 A real winter dram, this one. Sits right in the chest.
