66cl bottle @ Gastropub Tuulensuu, #16990, BBE 10.04.2016, bottled 10.04.2011
One can really smell the peated aroma! Very whiskey-like aroma with vanilla notes. Flavour has liquorice and lots of smokey, peated whiskey. As a whiskey lover I must say: I love this!

Brown + red colour. Smells very nice, a bit sweet and like flowers. Taste is a bit bitter, fresh and sweet. Palate is quite nice and easy.
