Evelyn Fortune 3.3

On the nose, it presents a mix of sea rocks, peat, and wet sand. The palate has notes of hot pepper and licorice wood, leading to a long-lasting finish.

Karson Mcelroy 3.3

Smells of oak, apple, tropical fruit, coconut, and mild peat. On the palate, it's sweet with a thin body and a very brief finish.

Nannie Porter 3.5

Citrus aroma. Peaty. Peppery and spicy. Viscous texture. A long-lasting honey finish.

Ariel Erwin 2.0

Peaty. Not one of my preferred whiskies; I'll pass on it next time.

Meaghan Riggs 3.8

Woody, sweeter than it is spicy. Honey, melon, and salty water

Lupe Villalobos 4.0

It was quite delicious and easy to drink.
