Single malt - North Highlands
Gold
43% ABV
Dram

Nose: Peat, butter, oranges, pears, raisins, oak, hints of smoke, hints of tyre rubber.
Mouthfeel: Light body, very volatile, foggy.
Tasting: Sweet sour. Oranges, peat, lemons, balsamic vinegar, brine, sherry, hints of metal polish.
Finish: Medium. Salty, lemons, brine.

Comments:

Very light body, almost insubstantial in the mouth, despite the low-ish alcohol percentage. Some very salty notes in the taste, combined with something metallic and chemical. Preserved Moroccan lemons in the finish, although not quite as well-combined as with some other whiskies.

Verdict:

I like this.
