"... Mouth: awww... The problem is that it's very drinkable at this strength, despite the rather huge saltiness. Excellent, all on olive 'juice' (I like that), anchovies again, smoked fish, a little cider, oysters again (just any breed)... Not much medicinal notes and the peatiness is, say 'controlled'. Very good. Finish: long and extremely briny and salty. (5 stars-Whiskyfun)
