n: Bourbony
 
p: Hot and spicy at the get go.  Once the shock leaves the palate there is an overwhelming white pepper flavor with chewy cedar.  It's a long finish that takes a long time to get to.  This one is for getting your attention, not relaxing.

n: Cocunut and wood finish.  Definitely a nod toward aged grain whisky.

 

p: A bit thin and bitter.  Cheerios and nut oil.  There's just not too much there.  For thirty years, it tastes like a bit too much grain and spent casks.

n:  Metallic.  Reminds me of taking apart an old machine with gears and oil, but then with a faint floral note added.
 
p:  Dank and intense.  Earthy and unsweet.  Full flavored with a thin mouthfeel.  It's good but not a smooth drinker for the noobs.

n: Oily sunflower seeds

 

p: Tame for a second, then BAM!  Hot and spicy.  Once the white pepper subsides, there are dry vegetal notes.  Perhaps hay and dry leaves.  Certainly entertaining if anything.

It's rare that I come across a true "fruit bomb." Usually you get "fruity notes" or "I get a bit of apricot" or something like that. But this bullseyes that whole (and I argue somewhat rare) category.  Like, you can't miss the fruity burst, which comes on a little bit stronger than you'd expect for the ABV. Stone fall fruits and mango, tropical stuff, maybe pinapple aspects, grapefruit, old-school Juicyfruit gum. The only reason I'm not going straight A is because the finish doesn't fully deliver on the promise of the nose and fun of the palate, but it's not a bad finish whatsoever. A/A-

n:  Not heavy on the peat as the finish is more pronounced.  Lacquer and saltwater taffey.

 

p:  Spicy and vibrant. Red hots and white pepper.   It's a bit like a less-subtle aged Port Ellen.  The finish is full, sweet, and briney (maybe the only peat influence.

 

B/B+

n: Great.  Candied peat in a floral breeze.  If "The Sound of Music" was peated... 

 

p:  Chewy flavor although the mouthfeel is thin.  Great gently flavored sweet earthiness.  Highly quaffable, but you do notice the watering down.  The beast in me wants to try this at cask strength, of course, but I can sit back and sip this in a rocking chair for now.
