What I say:
Sampled during Milroy’s of Soho Tweet Tasting 2
Nose:
more rounded and fruitier [peach/orange?], higher ABV? I get a little acetone (nail polish remover) burn on the nose, but under it a little wood
Palate:
spicier, more wood, – I suspect blend again but more/older malt?
Finish:
something dry/rubbery on the finish
Overall:
getting better, more complex, strange finish and doesn’t go well with water!
