Ries
 

n: nice sweet smoke, buttered graham crackers, orange creamsicle, heavy malt, with a whiff of fresh roasted peanuts. A fantastic nose!

 

t: dense & oily on the tongue, wood and char smoke with tasty malted barley and citrus/orange wax. Some burnt paper ash and varnish midway. Finishes nicely with vanilla bean and light spearmint. This is very interesting because it's so heavy on the original malted barley and it stays strong throughout the aging process (doesn't get too woody). This is a very delicious whisky.
