Remarks:
Notes from a blind tasting

Overall I rate this Whisky 86/100 points

  • Nose: 88/100 points
    nice fruity start, some apples, wax, old wooden furniture, apricots, a few plums and pears. A bit reminiscent of a Grant’s from the 80’s only a little stronger. Later a bit sour and some malt and caramel.

  • Taste: 87/100 points
    nice fruit acidity, apple, pear, plum, apricot, very fruity, light pepper. Later becoming a little bitter

  • Finish: 83/100 points
    sour here too and bitter. Short fruity. but rather on the harsh side.
