"...Antiques shop, old polished furniture, hints of turpentine, cigar box, leather, shoe polish... Lots happening in there, even if it's not precisely refined and elegant. Imagine an old Jaguar, burr walnut, Connolly leather and all that... Too bad the whole is a bit rough. Mouth: peat right away, then wax, then spices. Goes on with chewing tobacco (I know, yuk, but it's nice here), peppered cooked fruits, smoked ham, smoked tea..." (4.5 Stars-Whiskyfun)
