Remarks:
nice malt, very soft and round. Without corners and edges. On the nose it is rather reserved, but on the palate and in the finish it is quite convincing

Overall I rate this Whisky 86/100 points

  • Nose: 86/100 points
    soft, slightly dried fruits, raisins, some plums, slightly vanilla, slightly sweet, slightly spicy in the background, but all in all the soft sherry aromas predominate

  • Taste: 86/100 points
    Citrus fruits, now the sherry notes are more intense than on the nose, dried fruits, raisins and plums, spicy, slightly bitter towards the end

  • Finish: 86/100 points
    soft finish, sweetish fruity with a nice sherry profile. Later comes vanilla and a couple of nuts. Short to medium length
