So, this is partly Swiss. Colour: light gold. Nose: embarrassingly great. It's to be wondered if on the axis of wax (remember, HP, Cly, BN, Springbank), BN is not winning it. Amazing cough syrup, embrocation, camphor and burning church candles. Amen. With water: fresh teak, bidis, eucalyptus, paraffin. Mouth (neat): ultra-tight and full of juniper essence and thyme. Yet another style, while the greasy and chalky side of BN would have been preserved. With water: wax, turpentine, pine resin, kelp and oysters and drops of old Dutch genever. Any resemblance to real Dutch persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental. Finish: long, waxy, herbal. Apple peal and lemon zests in the aftertaste. Comments: unbeatable make.
