Whisky Notes (92)

Nose: huge, clean sherry nose with dried
fruits (dates, figs), fresh fruits (raspberries, plums, quinces, citrus)
and a slightly curious (but quite enjoyable) smell of overdue bananas.
Quite fragrant, with eucalyptus oil, polished cedar wood and hints of
old roses. Cocoa powder. Turpentine. And a whole array of soft spices
(cinnamon, ginger, cumin). Very rich.
Mouth: whoa, hot. Full of raisins,
plums, brambles, raspberries and oranges. A thick, jammy yet sparkling
fruitiness. A peppery kick too (peppercorn and wasabi). Drying black
thee and some woody tannins in the end.
Finish: long, with a nutty
dryness and spicy notes (pepper, clove, mint). Still some raisins.
