Tasting Notes:

Very light yellow color.
Slight smoke and flint on the nose.
On the palate this has a nutty profile with notes of baking spices and cocoa powder.
Spicy and flinty throughout the palate.
The finish is very long.
The most smoke I have tasted on an Auchentoshan bottling.
Great but pricey.
