The nose is rather surprising, and not that pleasant at first, recalling a kind of old wardrobe. Some farm smells as well, where animal hints seem to be mixed to straw, earth and a touch of sherry.
In the palate, this whisky is quite complex, with slightly bitter notes mixing with malty ones, before developing on a more acid register, but this musty feeling remains.
The finish is not too long, nor very short, withous a surprise, but contrasting with the mouth, by its smoothness and its clear malty hints, and the fusty taste is nearly forgotten. This bottle deserves certainly a second chance.
