one of the best whiskys I’ve tried so far.
For me personally, everything is right here.
Wonderfully complex and voluminous.
Overall I rate this Whisky 97/100 points
- Nose 97/100 points
Lots of dark fruits, chocolate, old oak furniture, furniture polish, raisins, some plums, soft, the alcohol is excellently integrated. Very voluminous and complex. Sweetish - Taste 97/100 points
very intense fruity sherry aromas, raisins, orange peel, old spicy oak, dried fruits, oak furniture, furniture polish, somewhat creamy. Here too, the alcohol is perfectly integrated. Later it becomes a little oily and a very slight bitter note emerges. - Finish 96/100 points
- wonderful aromatic finish.
Here it is a little bitterer than on the palate but not unpleasant.
and with the same rating this one needs also to be mentioned here:

Overall I rate this Whisky 97/100 points
- Nose
Soft and round, yet full of aromas that reflect the age of the malt. Incredibly complex. You can’t stop smelling it. - Taste
full-bodied and tasty, very saliva-stimulating, an incredible variety of flavors that do justice to the age of the malt. Wonderful! - Finish
A great long finish peppered with the aromas of sherry barrel maturation and age. Exceptionally good.
