There is almost syrupy thickness to the fruit, which in itself is unusual for the depth of pear-like lead. Oh... my... word...!!! What happened there? My palate has just been submerged in one of the stickiest yeat beautifully crafted fruit deliveries it hs come across in years. This is like some kind of chocolate liqueur. Even with a slight hint of passion fruit, to up the eye-watering qualities. Salivating and so chocolatey.... Still a little passion fruit on the finla with spcies and buley running amok. One of those rare whiskies which is every bit as remarkable for its mouthfeel than it is for its flavour personality, which in itself borders on the unique. No, what the hell! This IS unique! A malt whose beauty you can only marvel at.... I am truly blown away...
