Nose
Quite similar globally, but a little less fruity and certainly more resinous (close to almond milk and propolis here) and nutty. Lots of marzipan as well, roasted peanuts, beeswax, furniture polish. And then we have more or less the same superb notes of sandalwood.
Palate
An extraordinary attack, even punchier than the new OB, and also creamier and sweeter. It's the same distillery, obviously. Again a little less fruit and freshness and more waxy and resinous flavours. Notes of cough syrup, marzipan, lots of dried ginger and smoked tea.
Finish
Sort of a bitterness (dried herbs) and a long finish again, waxy and on lemon skin again.
