This whisky is from a First Fill American Oak Hogshead, bottled at 48.5% after maturing 30 years. Tasting note by Lawrence Graham of Whisky Intelligence: "The taste is marvellous, malt, a little pepper and then the honey once again along with the sour cherries. A touch of dark cake (over cooked) along with heather. With water there is some change resulting in an improved dram, water does the trick. Still quite spicy but a bigger experience. The finish presents oak spice and tobacco, a little more of the overcooked cake." ml
