Remarks:
Notes of a blind tasting:

very tasty fruity profile. Complex and stimulates saliva. I like it very much.

Overall I rate this Whisky 91/100 points

  • Nose: 91/100 points
    oh it has a nice nose. Sherry paired with maritime notes, herbs, slightly sour, fruity. Leather, spicy oak, citrus fruits. Then comes honey, wax, very complex and balanced. The alcohol is well integrated.

  • Taste: 91/100 points
    nice fruity sherry notes in the beginning, very aromatic, herbs, spicy oak, oranges, caramel, slightly sweet and yet a bit sour. Wax, honey, leather. delicious.

  • Finish: 91/100 points
    also here very aromatic, slightly tart, spicy oak, fruity, medium length.
