----------
Online Tasting Note for reference:

Nose:
This was definitely sweeter and more rounded, with prunes and raisins, adding a bit of fruitiness on top of the Lapsang tea and tarry notes. Chocolate and tobacco. 

Palate:
Dark and sweet fruits again. Blackberries, plums, mixing nicely with powerful peaty notes, coal ash and saline touches. Caramelized nuts. Also oranges and sour cherries, as well as a light vegetal and herbal edge. A more multifaceted whisky.

Finish:
Long, rich, on chocolate, herbs and leather.
