Remarks:
Very special malt. If the alcohol weren’t noticeably present, I would have guessed a whisky liqueur on the palate and in the finish. Find him almost too sweet. Still not bad at all

Overall I rate this Whisky 86/100 points

  • Nose: 86/100 points
    intense nose, apricot, plum, a little honey, slightly pungent alcohol, quite sweet

  • Taste: 86/100 points
    Very intense start, again the apricot and plum, but this time very, very sweet, alcohol also quite present here. Honey comes through here too. Spicy and bitter

  • Finish: 86/100 points
    Strongly spicy, but again very sweet, The fruits from the nose and palate are also present here. In the end it becomes bitter and slightly dry here too.
