Remarks:
really nice flavor profile. Very complex and wonderful aromas that wonderfully represent the age of the malt. Delicious

Overall I rate this Whisky 91/100 points

  • Nose: 91/100 points
    Strong, somewhat dirty, old furniture, intense dark and dried fruits, leather, spicy oak, oranges, a little mint, grapes in the background. Very nice old but dirty profile

  • Taste: 91/100 points
    strong sherry aromas, again the dirty, earthy, leather, lots of oak, spice, dried fruits, orange peel, old furniture, very salivary

  • Finish: 91/100 points
    strong, spicy sherry notes, a lot of oak, some nuts, a lot of dried fruits, some leather, very long and intense
