Remarks:
For the age it is quite complex. Very tasty, nice combination of sherry notes and smoke. Very tasty.
Overall I rate this Whisky 88/100 points
- Nose: 88/100 points
lots of dark fruits, plums, raisins, light smoke note combined with some ripe cherries. Later slightly sweet, alcohol is quite well integrated - Taste: 88/100 points
smoky, somewhat ashy, lots of dark fruits, very spicy, pepper, plums, raisins, later a bit sweet on the tongue, alcohol more present here. - Finish: 88/100 points
Smoky and spicy, pepper, a bit bitter, oak notes, quite a long finish, dark fruity taste lingers for a long time.
