Quite a discrete nose revealing some hints of hay, pear and malt. Despite its discretion, this whisky remains rather aggressive at the first nosing. Obvious presence of alcohol which dims after a few minutes.
The mouth is very fruit, with clear hints of (too) ripe pears and an annoying presence of alcohol. This dram literally burns the tongue without bringing lots of pleasure as a compensation.
The finish remains on the ripe fruit. More pleasant than the mouth was, as the burning feeling due to the alcohol fortunately has disappeared.
This is the first disappointing bottle from the bottler.
