Remarks:
great malt, very complex and balanced. It looks like a mix of 2015 and 2016 travel retail

Overall I rate this Whisky 91/100 points

  • Nose: 91/100 points
    old wood, furniture polish, dark and dried fruits, chocolate, honey, slightly spicy, some citrus fruits, looks very fresh and yet old. Later, with a little hand warmth, add some caramel and honey and a couple of spices

  • Taste: 91/100 points
    spicy fruity start, intense sherry notes, lots of dried fruits, apricots, raisins, plums, some chocolate, dark berries, honey, some leather, then come the old oak notes. In the end it becomes slightly oily and creamy

  • Finish: 91/100 points
    fruity finish at first glance, lots of dried fruits, intense sherry notes, spicy oak notes, leather, aromas stay on the tongue for a long time
