The nose is rather rich, with hints of honey mixed to a kind of hay smell and a touch of smoke on the background. Somethins like grass juice also perhaps...
In the palate, a nice complexity, mixing sweet-salted tastes, mix of muesli and not entirely ripe fruit, sherry hints and a slightly acid touch at the end.
A nice finish, between malt and sweet spices with a slight citrus fruit impression and a touch of ripe pear.
2006The first nosing reveals some light hints of heather, associated to some citrus touches. The taste confirms this first impression. Strong malt, partially due to its relatively high alcohol percentage, which helps the palate to appreciate fully all the rich touches of this good whisky.
A rather long finis crowns the whole.
2004The pleasant nose is somewhere between the sweetness of honey and the acidity of citrus fruits, on a background of wood and smoke.
In the palate, a great complexity, sweet and sour, with some hints of sherry on the background.
The pleasant finish is warm and lingering, with some spicy touches.
