Remarks:
very tasty malt which, in my opinion, differs somewhat in the nose and on the palate.

Overall I rate this Whisky 89/100 points

  • Nose: 89/100 points
    creamy, voluminous, lots of oak, dark dried fruits, spicy. Herbs, some floral notes. Earthy, later some hay, some citrus fruits. smells very old.

  • Taste: 90/100 points
    old wooden furniture, dark dried fruits, raisins, apricots, plums, becoming very fruity. Then the oak comes back. Light fruit acid shows. very complex and variable.

  • Finish: 87/100 points
    nice sherry-heavy finish, again lots of oak and slightly tart.
