Sampler

Nose: Raisins, salt caramel, oranges, lemon zest, walnuts, roast pork, hints of leather, hints of violets.

Comments:

Lots of subtle hints of grains, so faint that I'm not sure if I imagined most of them. There is one that's quite obvious, and unique - cooked rice, with a slight ferment that reminds me of sake. Good whisky, quite salty on the nose and again on the finish.

Verdict:

I like this.
