Comments:

I know, sounds a little yucky. Vomit? Well, actually the flavour in question is reminiscent of something fermented and slightly off, so maybe vomit isn't the right word. It was certainly what sprang to my mind though. Other than that, the whisky is pretty good, lots of fruit and flowers, with that fermented tang keeping it interesting.

Verdict:

I like this.
