Nose: Quite shy at first, with mild oakiness and subtle hints of fresh orchard fruits. Then emerges malt and the comforting scent of oven-warm sourdough bread crust.

Taste: Full-bodied, packing a punch. High-octane with deep fruitiness, sweet maltiness, nuts, and white pepper, firing on all cylinders.

Finish: Medium-long, staying big and spicy right through to the end.

Comment: A left hook of a whisky.
