Nose
Some fresh fruits and some sweet vanilla nose with a hint of green olives. The nose is nice and gentle, overal light and sugary. Nice!
Palate
Entry is rather sweet (not too sweet) and has an immediate bitterness in combination with something that reminds me of cooked ham. Second sip reveals something truly peppery. This is super! There is something a bit chemical with some solvents. Very nice.
Finish
Strong finish that lasts a while. I have some varnish tones in combination with with pepper and a hint of liquorice (sweet wood).
Conclusion
Fine whiskey, especially the strangeness of the pepper is a plus. There is a good balance between sweetness and a hint of bitter. Mouthfeeling is great, the drink really sparkles a bit on the tongue and numbs the inner cheeks a bit. The mouth is a little dry at the end of the tasting :-)
