94 The Whisky Advocate

Sweet peat and roasted oats open the nose. With time, spearmint, menthol, rubber soles, and bracing antiseptic aromas emerge. The palate delivers burnt banana, toasted coconut cream, rubber, and iodine. Beyond the expected peaty flavors, the whisky has exceptional depth. There’s a burst of vanilla sweetness and layers of stewed fruits and cheesecake. The whisky holds its proof well and the finish smolders with sweet smoke.
