Remarks:
good bourbon with interesting cask aging.
He needs time in the nose.

Overall I rate this Whisky 85/100 points

  • Nose: 85/100 points
    a bit reserved on the nose, the port finish only shows up after a while.
    Then come beautiful, but restrained fruity notes.
    An oak spice also resonates.

  • Taste: 86/100 points
    On the palate, the fruits are more intense,
    Here comes a lot of cherry, peach and dark berries.
    From the background, a sweet note becomes more and more apparent over time, until finally vanilla notes join the fruit from the beginning.
    Light oak notes resonate all the time.

  • Finish: 85/100 points
    The finish is more on the sweet side. this clearly has the upper hand here and is quite superficial. The fruity notes come here more in the background as well as the oak notes again.
    I would describe him medium long.
