Remarks:
wonderful malt. Very full and complex. a nice sherry profile.

Overall I rate this Whisky 89/100 points

  • Nose: 90/100 points
    very complex and full in it’s profile. Many dark fruits. A bit spicy and nice oak flavors. there could be a bit sulfur as well as a bit orange peel.

  • Taste: 89/100 points
    here also the dark and dry fruits show up combined with the oak and the orange flavors. Dark chocolate and raisins. Coffee. a bit spicy, later a bit tart. A bit of fruit sourness.

  • Finish: 89/100 points
    here it shows itself a bit tarter with dark chocolate and oak. But very nice in it’s flavors thou.
