Miksu (1291), Jyväskylä, Finland May 10, 2008 0.5 l bottle. Hazy deep golden color with small creamy head. Perfumed aroma with raspberry, heather and scotch whisky. Tart fruity flavor with notes of raspberry, honey, smoke, phenols and rubber. Peaty and heathery whisky finish. For me there is just enough whisky, its like a delicate spice.
