A well-known scene you may have seen before perhaps? Maybe from another timeline? Yes, it's Jon and Mike from LivingRoom Whisky celebrating their sci-fi-tastic victory at That Boutique-y Whisky Company’s "Islay Ultra Competition Showdown Throwdown Extravaganza To The Extreme Lucky Best Time" Try saying that after a few! This is, as the label says, from a famous Islay distillery, and it's a heavily peated expression, too.
Tasting notes:
Nose: Medicinal, with iodine and bandages. Earthy, drying peat, bracken, and seaweed. Hints of chocolate, salted caramel, and mint.
Palate: An oily mouthfeel, with wood ash and bonfire smoke dominating. Tarry, with sour fruits and cocoa.
Finish: Tangy fruits fade while an oily ash lingers.
