Remarks:
The rum cask can be clearly felt. Unfortunately, it is too alcoholic, bubbly and not very complex.
Overall I rate this Whisky 80/100 points
- Nose: 80/100 points
sweet, vanilla, very alcoholic for 43%, you can tell the rum cask. Nuts and light fruits in the background. The alcoholic is in the foreground - Taste: 80/100 points
Very sweet at the beginning with a lot of vanilla, then transitioning to a bit sourish bitter. Here, too, the alcohol comes to the fore. Little complex - Finish: 80/100 points
sweet with vanilla and caramel, spicy, rather short
