Remarks:
finely balanced malt. It doesn’t necessarily strike you with complexity, but it’s still very tasty and easy to drink. That in turn is a disadvantage at the price because it is too expensive to drink well.

Overall I rate this Whisky 90/100 points

  • Nose: 90/100 points
    very light soft smoke, sea air, fruity, very slightly sweet, in the background there are citrus fruits such as oranges and lime, leather, nice and refreshing

  • Taste: 90/100 points
    light pleasant smoke. Somewhat salty but at the same time sweet with fruits, apple, citrus fruits, orange, becoming slightly oily, some chocolate

  • Finish: 90/100 points
    Dark chocolate, light smoke and maritime notes, sweetish but still becoming bitter, long.
