Comments:

Rather bitter, and slightly tart. Set against that, there are many strong whiffs of sweet fruity flavours. An odd whisky, tingly and prickly on the tongue, yet cool and refreshing. No good with water, but yet tastes stronger than it actually is. A dram of many contradictions.

Verdict:

I like this.
