Tasting notes.Courtesy of Luke McCarthy. Whisky & Alement
Nose: Espresso, dark chocolate, sandal wood, and a herbal, almost minty note upfront
Palate: An initial confectionary sweetness lengthens into cloves, banana and and a hint of eucalyptus. With the addition of water, here comes the fruit: green apples and citrus, and then lavender and orange blossom.
Finish: Big! More cloves, loads of spice, and a textural, oily finish.
The Journeyman 18 Year Old, Cask Strength Single Malt Whisky 59.2% 500ml.
