June 2025 - Jam session - Nancy Appearance is perfectly clear, resembling the color of vodkas from my youth. A very peaty and smoky nose. There's a latent aggression in its aroma, like a squadron of Polish lancers eager for battle and glory. The horses are restless, the men impatient... The call of the Somosierra pass echoes in the wind of this whisky... Danger is present... Imperceptible. A first sip of great delicacy... At first, you might think the cavalry charge won't happen; the palate is met with an evanescent sweetness that seems infinite... Until a violent surge of spice and peat assaults the mouth, filling it with Dionysian pleasure! The second sip is absolutely explosive! A fierce, slightly smoky peat slaps the palate and takes over the entire mouth. Then, a third spicy sip explodes in the mouth, completing the previous onslaught! A whisky for men! It hits hard and delights the taste buds! Full of character! A singular whisky, noteworthy for its pronounced flavor and its explosive mouthfeel! For an informed audience. A taste of natural honey and chili lingers on the tongue. Nothing like the industrial honey aftertastes found in most whiskies. Dregs: Tasted at home during a jam session with distinguished guests! Guitars wail, voices rise, hearts connect, souls find peace... I thought I found a hint of pleasure with a loved one. A grave beginner's mistake. It is in these pagan songs and libations that my soul finds salvation. The whisky flows freely, the music soars, I am free, life is sweet.

A full feeling in the mouth with earthy, seaside notes. Powerful but not excessive.
