Nose: Lemon zest, cinder toffee, sour cream, lemon sweets, salt caramel, sultanas.

Finish: Medium. White pepper, sour cream, tarragon, lemon juice. 

Comments: 

Lactic, quite tart, but also fruity and herbal. There’s a surprisingly strong cinder toffee note, which in my mind clashes slightly with the lactic sour cream note. But it’s pretty good for such a young whisky.

Verdict:

I like this.
