Nose Treacle and cornflakes become oats with cream and jam, then with golden syrup.
Palate Brine, more treacle, tropical fruit, some engine oil, gently warming without characteristic pepperiness.
Finish Smoke that’s been hiding just below the surface pokes its head above the parapet for a satisfying finish.
Overall A definite contender for best dram from a great bunch of Special Releases this year.
