At the third tasting, the nose was clearly marked by a slightly acid citrus fruit freshness, mixed to a light smell of ripe fruits, peaches.
In the palate, the malt is first peppery and develops quickly on citrus and ripe fruits (in fact the same impressions than for the nose), on a smoky background.
A pleasant finish, with malted and slightly acid touches. It is really funny to see the differences between those 3 notes...

A second tasting in the usual conditions (this was not the case for the first one) gave quite different results. First, a very pleasant nose, slightly smoke, with spicy and peppery hints, followed by a taste confirming the good impression. The finish could be longer.

This whisky is dominated by the malt at the very first nosing. The taste is rather pleasant, and the palate detects some pepper or spices over the malt. The finish is not really special. This cannot be the best product of this renown distillery ...

The nose is quite clear, fresh with some hay and fruity notes, and a very light medicinal hint. The palate is fresh, just as the nose was, without excessive complexity, with both slightly acid notes and a rather pleasant smooth bitterness. A very nice finish, lingering and warm, with nice hints of malt and hazelnut, some touches of citrus fruit and plum, with a kind of discrete bitter tingling.
