Remarks:
Pleasant malt, quite fresh in profile. It’s also great as a summer whisky in my opinion.
Overall I rate this Whisky 88/100 points
- Nose: 88/100 points
Intense citrus fruits, looks very fresh, some smoke, subtly sweet, herbs, some oak, maritime notes, the alcohol is a bit noticeable and then the smoke becomes a bit more intense. Hay comes through as well as white fruits and grains - Taste: 88/100 points
malty, herbs, sweet, again the citrus fruits on the nose, maritime notes here too, later a bit spicy, light fruits and some grain notes - Finish: 88/100 points
Citrus-heavy, sweet, strong, slightly salty maritime notes merging into fresh herb aromas.
