Remarks:
Notes of a blind tasting:

hmm, so I don’t like it that much. Little complex, alcohol is not well integrated. the 2cl sample is enough for me from this malt.

Overall I rate this Whisky 84/100 points

  • Nose: 84/100 points
    Malt, light fruits, a bit alcoholic, very reserved and not very complex

  • Taste: 84/100 points
    Malty, spices, light fruits somehow also here, but I find the taste somehow, let’s say funny (not in the sense that I have to laugh, rather the opposite would be the case). Here, too, the alcohol is present.

  • Finish: 84/100 points
    Short but strong again with the malt and the light fruits. Then it gets very tart and it’s all over already.
