Remarks:
Not very complex in my opinion.
The rum barrel makes it less complex and, in my opinion, takes away a lot of the flavors on the palate.

Overall I rate this Whisky:

  • Nose:
    sweet, vanilla, lots of oak, the alcohol stings a bit in the nose, some citrus fruits, some cherries in the background. A bit bitter later

  • Taste:
    Sweet, vanilla, caramel, a little spiciness and later becoming a little tart

  • Finish:
    Bourbon typical finish. Sweet, oak, vanilla and some citrus
