Remarks:
Very nice malt with a nice finish. Despite the high alcohol content, it doesn’t need any water

Overall I rate this Whisky 90/100 points

  • Nose: 90/100 points
    fruity sweet with sherry, hot ginger, spicy, somewhat nutty, malty with dark chocolate. Citrus fruits in the background, dried fruits

  • Taste: 90/100 points
    very fruity, sweet, spicy, nutty, also here a little sharpness. Slightly minty, dried fruits, slightly tart, a little oily at the end

  • Finish: 90/100 points
    long finish, fruity sweet with lots of dried fruits, nutty and malty, very nice oak notes
