Remarks:
Notes of a blind tasting

Overall I rate this Whisky 91/100 points

  • Nose: 91/100 points
    Lots of herbs, heather, hay, grain, floral notes, subtly sweet in the background, then a beautiful fruit basket emerges, tropical fruits like mango, but also other light fruits. After a while, nice wood notes appear. Very nice nose! which causes very long sniffing

  • Taste: 91/100 points
    soft and creamy, full-bodied, sweet, herbs, oak, vanilla, caramel, fruity wood notes, very complex and stimulates saliva

  • Finish: 91/100 points
    fruity sweet, oak, very intense. The aromas and impressions on the palate are also reflected here. The aromas stay on the tongue for a long time
