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.
