TESTING
It got much sweeter, on apple compote but also tea, white pepper, ginger. Gets earthier and earthier, rooty, with also notes of ginger tonic, cinchona and bitter oranges, probably from the wood. Rather long finish, peppery, mustardy and smoky, maybe more like some Taliskers rather than 'regular' Port Ellens at the finish. Not stellar and slightly atypical but very good, that's for sure.
