Quite a fresh nose, with clear hay hints and some slightly fruity notes. The nose is rather discrete and the whisky not marked by wood, even after long years in an oak cask.
The mouth is torn between bitter and acid notes. The bitterness is not related to wood, and the acidity not related to citrus fruits. The palate seems to suffer from a lack at depth, contrast and colour. The taste is special, and this bottle probably deserves another tasting as it seems to need more aeration time to reveal all it's qualities.
The finish is lingering and the same bitter/acid pair seems to dominate the finish.
