I LOVE this tasting note....

[TheEngineer]

I had all smiles when I read this note from Jim Murray in the Whisky Bible (2007).

"Tasting note:

Nose: Youthful, with myriad citrus notes trying to outdazzle the gathering peat; shows great subtlety and fun;

Taste: Refreshing, with the barley insisting on behaving half the age it actually is. The smoke appears lethargic but grows into a spicy crescendo;

Finish: Lots of vanilla amid the dusty malt; lots of coffe fudge to balance the smoke;

Balance; the best bottling yet with complexity a byword here."

I can just imagine the Irish accent in those words!!!
