General description

Een whisky om echt even tijd voor te nemen. Er is veel te ontdekken. Veel verschillende aroma's in de neus: donkere sinaasappel, kersen, gember en rozijnen. Eerst pittig op de tong, daarna zoet, licht fruit, vanille en een lange, bijna ziltige nasmaak. Meer pit dan de 12 jaar Double Cask door de Europese eik en niet door de 48%.

General description

Een whisky om echt even tijd voor te nemen. Er is veel te ontdekken in de geur. Veel verschillende aroma's: koffie, donkere sinaasappel, kersen, gember en rozijnen. De smaak blijft echter een beetje achter bij de neus. Eerst pittig op de tong, daarna zoet, licht rood fruit, vanille en een lange bittere, zoutige nasmaak.
Met iets meer dan één theelepel water meer warmte (cacao), vanille en fruit in de neus. Een milder mondgevoel met rood fruit, warme peper en gember.
Meer pit dan de 12 jaar Double Cask door de Europese eik, maar iets minder verfijnd. Kan goed tegen water...wordt echt lekkerder.

General description

I like it really much! It's dark and woody and powerful. The feeling on the tongue is like charred sawdust. Really strong and interesting stuff!

Nose

A voluminous, spicy, oily nose full of plums and raisins, cardamom, cinnamon and sandalwood. A bit biting alcohol.

Palate

Dark and dry taste after dried fruit, roast hazelnuts, vanilla, caramellized brown sugar and strong liquorice. Dark chocolate and almonds in a drying, velvety mouthfeel.

Finish

Woody oak and dark chocolate, lasting long and intensively.

General description

A nice mix of sweet fruit and spicy nuts. Not a heavily sherried malt (which is a big plus for me) and bottled at a decent abv. Good value for money.

Nose

Fruity, with pear, red apples and peach. Caramel, cinnamon and notes of gingerbread.

Palate

Sugared coffee, raisins, sugar coated nuts, pepper and ginger. The sweet and spicy notes are nicely balanced.

Finish

Butterscotch, dark chocolate and traces of slightly bitter artificial strawberry.
