Despite the very pale colour of this whisky, the nose seems to reveal clear sherry hints. And it is a bourbon cask... which explains the colour, but not the smell.The nose is simply fantastic. Mix of sherry and nice fresh floral notes. A real bunch of flowers beside a sherry bottle. Exotic fruit, pineapple, honey and some cut grass. A very rich nose anyway and changing all the time.
In the mouth, the first impression is some woody hints followed by a deep malty smoothness and very nice peppery and spicy notes. After a while (fortunately rather long), all tastes seem to dim suddenly before leaving quite a neutral palate.
But the finish is very long and extremely pleasant with ist sherry notes closely mixed together.
