First taste of the sample, not impressed but might need to oxidize in the bottle. The scent is amazing, the most beautiful oloroso notes but it tastes like a slightly less astringent, more viscous, more integrated Kilchoman Sanaig. It doesn’t measure up to ballechin stfc bourdeaux or even ballechin 10 yr standard.
On a second tasting after some oxidation in the sample bottle, same impression except now even the amazing unique scent is gone and this is like a cask strength kilchoman sanaig. That’s good but not exceptional like ballechin sftc Bordeaux
Dry sherry notes and Highland campfire peat. Nice but simple. Not interesting enough to buy a bottle
Same style and price bracket, best rated first.
