Really not good and not what I’d expect from a 17 year old. There were some really acrid flavours that are more common in much younger whiskies. Not sure I can even bring myself to drink any more of it.
The tasting notes above don’t mention one of the main flavours of this whisky - peat smoke. There is sweetness too and it’s a pleasant dram but I definitely expecting the peat. I suggest MoM add it to the tasting notes.
I have a great friend who appreciates whisky. We sampled this product yesterday and were intrigued by the way it developed once in the mouth - a long multi-faceted lingering with interesting flavours making themselves apparent. We enjoyed the experience, and I would certainly purchase again once the present bottle indicates that a replacement is necessary.
