An unusual spirit. A fruity, fragrant nose with some new wood notes, accompanied by an alcohol bite. It appears to be a very inexpensive dram. The taste is better, with perfumed and citric notes and a fruity finish.

Silky smooth with a buttery character, a touch of peat that isn't overpowering.
Too complicated right now
