A marvelous nose, very clear, consisting of a subtle mix of grilled spices and hints of smoke. Exotic fruit, lots of flowers, a rare complexity for this whisky which is much more than simply nice. After such a nose, the mouth could be deceiving.
Not at all. First a kind of woody bitterness quickly followed by a very pleasant acidity to develop on a nice palette of various tastes from refined wood to half ripe exotic fruits. A continuous balance between bitterness and smoothness.
The finish is very long and prolongs perfectly the palate impression. Really an exceptionally good whisky.
