Remarks:
Very nice malt. Wonderfully complex and very aromatic

Overall I rate this Whisky 90/100 points

  • Nose: 90/100 points
    strong fruity start, cherries, spicy oak notes, leather, dried fruits, plums, herbs, the alcohol is very well integrated

  • Taste: 90/100 points
    Here, too, a strong and fruity start, but now the alcohol can be felt more clearly and appears in the form of pepper. Otherwise, the aromas from the nose can also be found here, becoming oily towards the end

  • Finish: 90/100 points
    nice spicy finish, slightly sweet with a hint of dark chocolate, very long. Again, the fruits only come in a somewhat weaker form
