words Of Whisky:
Refill and new American oak and amontillado seasoned
Nose: Rather creamy, almost buttery and certainly with plenty of vanilla, but also whispers of oranges, butterscotch, ripe apples and touches of minerals. Finally some caraway seeds.
Taste: Sweet, creamy arrival. But the first impression is mostly dominated by (oak) spices. Slight bitterness with a hot pepperiness. That’s followed by apple peel, sultanas and peanut skins, but also a soft salinity, while water brings out lemon pith and freshly cut grass.
Finish: Long with lingering oak spices, salt and orchard fruits.
CONCLUSION
A young-ish, somewhat hot Oban. It has some pleasant coastal touches, but I find the oak spices on the palate a little too present. Good, but certainly not an easy sipper, if that’s what you’re hoping for.
