Remarks:
beautiful malt in which the high alcohol content is very well integrated. It doesn’t necessarily need water. Nice notes of sherry
Overall I rate this Whisky 88/100 points
- Nose: 88/100 points
Dried fruits, spicy, oak, the alcohol is well integrated, dark chocolate, raisins, some figs in the background, apricots, at the end there are citrus fruits - Taste: 88/100 points
spicy start, dried fruits, raisins, plums, some pepper that gets stronger over time, oak, some chocolate, here the high alcohol content comes into its own. Becoming oily and creamy at the end. - Finish: 88/100 points
strong spicy finish with nice notes of sherry. Warming. Quite a long time. At the end the citrus fruits come back briefly and then slightly bitter but not unpleasant
