When the bottle is wee you get from uncorking to bottle kill like THAT. After trying this sample I’d be glad to pick up a full bottle. It has a sophistication like Lagavulin and a complexity like Caol Ila. Flavorful yet soft peat smoke, plumb, chocolate, brioche. A great way to toast the end of my dry week. Cheers!

It’s time again for my quarterly dry week—to reset my palate, my body, and my brain. Have a great week everyone. See y’all again April 9th! Cheers—this time with coffee!
