Remarks:
a really great malt with very interesting flavors. I like it very much.
Overall I rate this Whisky 91/100 points
- Nose: 91/100 points
Old wood, lots of honey, vanilla, mint, floral notes, lots of berries, has something of an energy drink, very complex, a pleasant sweetness hovers over the other aromas all the time. Slightly earthy later. Soft. Quite an extraordinary nose - Taste: 91/100 points
minty fruity start. Again the energy drink, lots of fruit, sweet, some hay and oak notes. Furniture polish. Honey and slightly malty combined with nuts - Finish: 91/100 points
Spicy, sweet finish, very fruity, nutty, some mint, lots of berries, the fruit cocktail stays on the palate for a very long time. Very salivary.
