Remarks:
very good bourbon. Needs some time in the glass to open up.
A true battle of flavors rages on the palate.
I like it.

Overall I rate this Whisky 87/100 points

  • Nose: 88/100 points
    The alcohol is something to begin with. Sweet earthy notes, the influence of the red wine barrel is noticeable. Dark fruits, vanilla and leather come through. After a while, a hint of milk chocolate. Then the fruity notes become more intense.
  • Taste: 87/100 points
    Very fruity at the beginning and then quickly changing into sweetness with vanilla and caramel before the dark fruits come again and a pleasant fruit acidity joins them. There is really something going on on the palate.

  • Finish: 86/100 points
    from the notes from the nose and the palate everything is included here, albeit in a somewhat weaker version. He stops for a long time.
