Jose Massu Espinel 4.0

I have been pushed all over online whisky groups to try th famous Bunnahabhain Staoisha releases from Signatory Vintage. For what i can understand, this "Staoisha" releases are peated Bunnahabhains, since the word comes from Lake Staoisha near the distillery. This one is an 8 year old, distilled on september 27, 2013. It was bottled on june 2022. The strength of this whisky is 46%abv. On the palate, it starts with a burnt pineapple, like the ones used in some non-traditional pizzas. White chocolate and a pair of new shoes. Humidity notes. On the palate, i found it to be a lot sweeter than i thought. Vanilla, Ritter white chocolate. On the second sip i got the peated notes of rubber and a pair of cotton socks. Aftertaste is all about peaty crazy notes. Leather, rubber, and a peppery spiciness. Overall, this was not as good as i expected, specially when a lot of people told me to try it, but it just didn't blew my mind. It doesn't feel THAT peaty. A proper score for it would be 21 points in each criteria, making it a soñid 84 over 100.
