very tasty Islay malt. Would guess Caol Ila or Lagavulin, really good for the price

Overall I rate this Whisky 86/100 points

  • Nose: 86/100 points
    smoky maritime, citrus fruits and herbs. the smoke is a bit reserved, slightly sweet, fruity

  • Taste: 86/100 points
    light maritime smoke, citrus fruits, slightly sweet, slightly nutty, slightly spicy, later slightly pepper and becoming a bit bitter

  • Finish: 86/100 points
    nice fruity, sweet, smoky finish, somewhat nutty, maritime notes, somewhat nutty
