Remarks:
Very nice single grain, the barrel influence is especially noticeable in the nose, which makes it a little less complex. Still, I really like the combination of flavors.
Overall I rate this Whisky 87/100 points
- Nose: 87/100 points
very spicy wood notes, has something of soy sauce, old furniture, in the background very light aromas of sherry emerge, a little pepper and later slightly dried fruits. Slightly nutty. It takes a lot of time. - Taste: 87/100 points
Somewhat damp wood, old wooden furniture, spicy bitter, fermented fruits, becoming oily creamy, leather, dark chocolate - Finish: 87/100 points
spicy wood notes, nutty and slightly sweet which again merges into bitter, tart notes, dark chocolate, slightly oily. Notes of leather linger on the tongue for a long time
