The impressions at the second tasting are rather different from the first time.
The nose reveals sherry notes, and a touch of spices on a cereal background is present.
A great sweetness, again on a malted background characterizes the palate, with some woody tastes in addition. The percentage of alcohol is not really optimal to taste all the nuances of this potentially great whisky.
A sweet and pleasant, but rather short finish.


This whisky is pleasant from the very first nosing, with a slightly spiced malt smell. The taste reveals malt, but also a certain lack of complexity. A long and pleasant finish. The whole makes it a good whisky, even though it is not essential.


The nose is clearly dominated by sherry, with a touch of smoke and spices and some slight medicinal hints.
In the mouth, a nice impression, however too much marked by the sherry, which covers and masks the other fragrances, but some malty hints seem to be hidden behind the sherry taste. This whisky would probably have revealed more of its complexity if it had been bottled at 43 or 46% rather than its 40%.
The finish is interesting, but too short.
