Remarks:
beautiful malt. With a little water it becomes round and soft.
Overall I rate this Whisky 87/100 points
- Nose: 87/100 points
At first, the sulfur rises in the nose combined with a little alcoholic sharpness, which is not surprising given the 63% or more. Full strong sherry aromas, coffee, chocolate in the background combined with citrus fruits - Taste: 87/100 points
Sulphurous start, full and heavy, aromas of sherry, some chocolate and pepper, getting hot, some leather - Finish: 87/100 points
strong finish, chocolaty, notes of sherry. slight sulfur note, later becoming bitter
