Remarks:
For 40% the alcohol is not well integrated. Even from the sherry maturation you can only find nice notes in the finish

Overall I rate this Whisky 83/100 points

  • Nose: 83/100 points
    Alcohol, malt, then light sherry notes, wood aromas, some nuts in the background, sweet with light aromas of berries

  • Taste: 83/100 points
    spicy leathery, some dried fruits, light pepper, oak notes, slightly bitter and sour.

  • Finish: 84/100 points
    here a lot of dried fruits and also sweetness come to the fore. Nice profile and medium length
