Ccrumpled.fox17 Sept
The Hearach’s notes bring together sour citrus and gentle peat smoke, then move into rhubarb, candied lemon and creamy fudge on the palate. That mix of bright, sharp details with a sweeter, creamier side gives the whisky a clear point of contrast. The finish is described as smooth then sharp, with lingering sweetness, which sounds like a satisfying close without making the smoke the whole story. The ex-bourbon and sherry cask wording gives some context, but does not establish a cask sequence.
