Color: birch sap

Nose: dough, yeast, raw grain, a little sweet pie, cheap perfume

Body: weak, formless, prickly

Taste: flesh white bread, minerals (wet granite), raw fish (sushi maguro), a fresh tree bark, raw mushrooms (champignons), licorice root. On further acquaintance "mushroom component" is enhanced:) Slightly oily and quite alcoholicity.

With water: appear active in the flavor tones of burnt rubber, the taste is the same tires, but the whiskey, in general, becomes a bit more rounded.

Finish: short, bitterly

sharp enough to separate taste aromatic constituents of the malt did not want to develop in a balanced or single whole. Apparently, not the last word here said the worn barrel. However, despite the overall low evaluations, especially from the disappointment of whiskey I do not experienced, in contrast, was filled with even mild sympathy for this pilot (albeit not very successfully) release. Obviously, because of the good level of alcohol distilleries.
