Remarks:
Notes of a blind tasting:
it wants you to smell it for a long time. Very intense aromas. It takes time. I like it very much.
Overall I rate this Whisky 89/100 points
- Nose: 89/100 points
at first I have strong alcohol and a dirty note like musty wood. Much later, dark berries, honey, chocolate and some oranges appear. quite intense sherry aromas come to the fore, but they don’t seem superimposed. - Taste: 89/100 points
strong dark fruity start, citrus fruits, lots of sherry aromas, berries, spicy and slightly hot. Honey, chocolate, becomes creamy over time, but the strong appearance remains. - Finish: 89/100 points
strong, intense dark fruity notes. Berries, citrus fruits, chocolate, honey
