Extremely dense nose, very sherry, and without sherry, where is the Lagavulin? After a few minutes he is there, along with lots of Led er, bright yellow fruit, citrus flavors and a good dash of vanilla over some hickory smoked barbecue. At some distance a fire blazes. Much later, the smoke has almost disappeared and only a hint of lemon comes to a full portion of caramel pudding. Only exercise brings back light smoke, peaches and mirabelles. Warms smoke from a stifling log fire, floor wax, iodine, the warmer it gets, the more the fire blazes again, it goes more and more towards chemical fire. The yellow fruits are also always juicier and more mature, a lot of peaches. From time to time also a floral approach, almost perfumed.

Rich, full, well-integrated alcohol, in the taste initially very light with light honey, darker and maltier behind, dark caramel, slightly burnt and a little salted. Add to that very slowly white pepper to back a very gentle bitterness.

In the finish, the sweet tones are gone first, only much later go the tannins, until the end even sweet ash on the tongue remains, and for a very long time.
