Rock oyster cask strength - Nose: young, obvious higher alcohol content, slightly salty. Palate: salty, similar to the smell of dully steamed shellfish; fruity sour like budding green grapes, alcohol content is noticeable. No hints of sweet fruit or spice. Finish: moderate, smooth, a little dry, higher alcohol appears to remove the finish.
Reminds me of the olderJohnnie Walker red labels BUT soooo much more enjoyable, smoother, and easier on the finish. Taste is unique, clear, simple, and a little mysterious. I was impressed and now i want a few bottles. Too bad i can't get these DLs legally or economically here.
