Remarks:
very nice aroma combination. The aromas on the nose and finish are pretty much identical. A different, different flavor profile is evident on the palate.
Overall I rate this Whisky 86/100 points
- Nose: 86/100 points
spicy, sweet, fruity, vanilla, caramel, chocolate. Then there are citrus fruits, orange, then alternating with plums, apricots, slightly nutty - Taste: 86/100 points
spicy, citrus fruits, orange, then peach and apricots, very fruity and less sweet than on the nose, later some herbs - Finish: 86/100 points
Soft start, now sweeter and fruity again, vanilla comes paired with a little chocolate, then comes caramel and light nuts at the end
