| Review #316 |
Einar is
part of the ”The Warrior Series” and he once ruled over Orkney. The smell has a
great mixture of gentle oak and sweet vanilla, and on the other hand, some
“Orkney” notes. Meaning salt, grass, hay and dirt. In the end, I get some light
citrusy notes.
Very rough
in the taste. Not regarding the alcohol, but the notes of hay and peat. The
peat is not very dominant though. It is more the “farmer-notes” that are in
focus (grass, hay, dirt, etc). At first in the finish it is just the notes from
the taste that lingers off, but in the end it gets very sweet. Caramel and
vanilla ice cream sweet.
It is a
young, no age statement whisky, watered all the way down to 40 %, but I like
it. The rough notes remind me of being on Orkney! It is not overly complex, but
it delivers what it is supposed to! I will give this 85/100 (21/21/22/21).
