This initially seemed like a lower-quality Johnnie Double Black, but wow, that finish is harsh – the worst kind of smoky, like a nasty cigar aftertaste.

Oily in the glass. Leather. Iodized but not very complex smoky notes. In the mouth, Gruyere cheese. Slightly peppery. Cured ham. Water mutes it.
1863 black edition. A touch of smoke.
An excellent first taste of scotch
