Remarks:
Very ashy, dirty and intensely smoky on the nose. On the palate and finish, it goes more in the fruity direction. Very special, you have to like the aromas in the nose. I like it very well.
Overall I rate this Whisky 88/100 points
- Nose: 88/100 points
intense fruity campfire smoke, ash, pepper, dirty, light fruits in the background and slightly maritime notes. The dirty ashy flavors predominate. - Taste: 88/100 points
smoky, slightly sweet, pepper, lots of light fruits, very spicy and hot. Slightly creamy, citrus fruits - Finish: 88/100 points
Smoke, sweet, fruity, malty, very slightly salty in the background. A bit bitter at the end, citrus-fruity.
