Remarks:
Very tasty malt, wonderful nose, beautiful complex aroma combination, I like it very much.

Overall I rate this Whisky 90/100 points

  • Nose: 90/100 points
    Soft round nose, spicy, a lot of oak, slightly sweet with fruit, a hint of banana, slightly nutty, citrus fruits, herbs, I would mean a little heather, a slight tinge of alcohol with a deep breath

  • Taste: 90/100 points
    Lots of citrus on the tip of the tongue, strong spicy approach, becoming fruity and sweet, some honey, lots of berries, a real fruit basket, lots of herbs and a bit spicy. Chocolate comes very easily in the background.

  • Finish: 90/100 points
    soft finish, slightly spicy, becoming nutty and creamy, dark chocolate, oily, about medium length, hint of citrus fruits. Fruits on the palate are also present, if not as pronounced.
