Запах торфа, сменяется карамельной сладостью. Дым по вкусу - печная гарь. Немного резины - старая слабопахнущая велосипедная покрышка Аиста. Запаха моря и йода я не уловил. Крепкий, но не так убийственно для вкуса, как тамду. Довольно простой. Несмотря на высокий ппм не такой жесткий удушливый дым как у Лафройг. Из всего что пробовал (ок. 25 ) - наверное самое нелепое соотношение цена-качество (не влияет на мою оценку) .
Amazing
Camarelized briny grassCookies, sweet, very strong alcohol
Smoy Phenolic rubber, needs water
Short smoke
One of my favourite Octomores, Jim McEwan's swan song is amazing for a 5 year old Islay whisky. It has richness, the oak is balanced well with a high PPM peat, smoky meat, rubber, funky cheese and sweetness of fruit and vanilla. Along with Kavalan Solist, this is one that I enjoyed sharing with friends so much. Great to serve with a dark chocolate dessert.
this was my first octomore and it sparked my love for the range. heavy peat and smoke, but at the same time, a lovely balance and distinct flavours to it. Worth every penny
Definitely needs a splash of water and some time to open up. Dark bitter chocolate and orange, and a peaty bog. Nose is surprisingly gentle, plenty of sea salt spray and leather and apple pie. Finish? - never ending and complex
Very peaty, smells and tastes like peated ham. Very smooth and long finish.
Very interesting taste and definitely one of the best.
This is a beast. So good. Very aggressive which is perfect for the right mood.
funky peat. smoke. sour
more peat. ash. burning wood. campfire. spice. salty
spice. ash. salty brine. campfire. hot finish
In der nase stark rauchig mit einer nicht allzusehr versteckten fruchtigen zitrusnote.
Im mund sehr kräftiger antritt mit scharfer alkoholnote.
ein sehr guter tropfen.
It's like an abusive girl friend who gives you a world class back massage after a fight. She hurts you than makes you feel so good.
Have you ever tasted gimney?
Smoke and peat is strong with this one. Also quite sharp at the beginning but very nice whisky indeed.
Nose: peat, fruit
Body: spicy, oily, peated (despite 208ppm still very round and pleasant),
Finish: medium length, pleasant, warming (burning at cask strength)
great hits of smoke and peat. well balanced and not overpowering
first smell of heavy smoke, tar. fruity taste, dried fruits, oily. hold it in your mouth for at least 20 seconds to make all the flavours come free. it will numb your tongue and enhance the sweet flavours. long aftertaste of salty caramel with a peated undertone.
tar and peat but with some sulfury smells. almost gluey
first lots of peat, then when kept in mouth for 20 seconds it will numb your tongue and bring free all sweet, dried fruits and caramel flavours
salty caramel with a peated undertone.
Absolut wuchtig im Geschmack, sehr ausgewogen trotz des Torfgehalts. Einfach ein Erlebnis.
What a peat bomb! Great flavour the lingers for hours.
extremely peaty and at 59,5 % alc quite smooth. Fruit, little bit of oak. very tastefull.
