Sensory Description:
The aroma awakens the senses with fresh herbal notes intermingled with vanilla and pear, while rich Turkish coffee, sappy pine resin, and honey-glazed ham add layers of complexity. A dash of water reveals vetiver and fennel, as aniseed, green apple, and leather emerge alongside a sharp wave of smoke and black pepper. On the palate, Wee Beastie erupts with bold flavors of chocolate, creosote, and tar, punctuated by eucalyptus and aniseed. As the intense smokiness deepens, hints of smoked bacon and savory meats round out the experience. The long, salty finish coats the mouth with lingering cocoa and fudge, offering a satisfying conclusion to this dynamic whisky.
