What Members Thought
Reviewers describe this 20-year-old single malt as a sweet, smoky, and intensely spicy pour. Initial flavors include honey, melon, vanilla, and burnt orange, alongside salt and mild campfire smoke. The mouthfeel leans fiery and "drinks a bit hot," delivering substantial pepper, burn, and a tingly sensation. While some found it rough around the edges or noted a medicinal or rubbery finish, others appreciated its bold character despite the heat, finding it surprisingly approachable.
