Could be that this would be W.I.R.D. too, let’s see. Colour: gold. Nose: what’s sure is that there’s more floral/fruity oak influence, with more mangos and dandelions (nutshell). That gives it a more whisky-y profile, which is pretty spectacular. We’re wandering around the borders of each category here. Softer and gentler than the Guildive. With water: fine! Mushrooms, soft spices, earth, a touch of spearmint, and Elmex toothpaste, which is WF’s official brand of toothpaste. And so you’re wondering whether we’re joking? Serious? Mouth (neat): well, we’re much closer to the Guilidve now, while this spicy earthiness juts works. Clove cake, cinnamon cake, bananas, aniseed… Only the middle is a tad weaker, with a wee dent towards vanilla and varnish. With water: much softer than the Guidlive now. No Islayness, rather some cakes and roasted nuts. Pecans, perhaps. Finish: rather long, rather cane-y. Comments: very good, now it’s like if the proportions of column rum were higher here
