House Review
  • Intro:

    I tasted this dram blind and then got the reveal at a later time, so keep that in mind as you read through these notes.

  • Nose:

    Honey, toffee, pepper. Faint lemon, yeast forward baked bread. Light icing. Not much beyond that.

  • Taste:

    Thin, hot. Ashy, peppery, musty. Big peat slap. Iodine, sea air, burning wood. Searing ethanol.

  • Finish:

    Long, ashy, hot and powerful. Not a ton of complexity here. Total peat bomb

  • Overall:

    This was nice but very hot and one noted.

  • Score:

    5
