medium long with chilli
Comment:
The color is very pale than expected even I heard it has so. It's totally different from what I had a impression at Ardbeg 10yo. It's not too much phenol / peaty whisky. it's very present, Well balanced one between peat, honey and orange. I can not feel such a strong alcohol level around 46%.
Even when adding water, the structure of this whisky flavor and palate doesn't corrupt.
