The general impression during the second tasting was better than the first time. Even if this bottle cannot be considered as one of the best Scotch whiskies, this :malt is quite nice, and can compete with many others. A very pleasant taste, however without this complexity, mixing spices, malt and smoke which characterizes the best bottles.


Color: Gold
Pretty but very discreet notes of tangerine are mixed with malt and cereal smells. Although enjoyable, this mouth seems to betray a young and somewhat immature whisky, by those hints of yeast that are found in the background.
The first palate is very fruity, but rather flat.
The length of the finish is medium . Relatively fresh, with discrete notes of unripe nuts. Not really complex nor particularly rich. Apart from being quite pleasant, the mouth is not of major interest. Sweetness and fresh notes of fruit. And it's a nearly all.


This whisky does not come from a very popular distilleries area. The malt is not very popular neither, but it is rather pleasant. It caracterizes itself by a relatively strong wood taste, but stay remarkably balanced. A reasonable price for a good but not essential whisky. No regrets for having purchased it...


The floral nose reveals some discrete spice hints.
In the palate, malt dominates with a slight touch of liquorice and some woody aftertaste.
The finish is rather pleasant, on malt with some bitterness.
