(second edition - aged in imperial johnny smoked porter casks filled previously with Lark, 2019 release, bottle 247 of 687, 54%) crystalline burnt sugars, crunchy almost. Layered, crushed candy, christmas pudding. Both power and elegance. Effortless. Long and lingering, more cocoa dusting and burnt sugar, fresh cinnamon buns. Sweet, yes, but also structured and complex. Easy to drink, but incredible length and interest. Beautiful dram.
