hyper sherry, again on rum, raisins and chocolate. And no sourish notes this time. Too bad it gets then a bit too tannic, with also some hints of aspirin and clove. The finish is long, but mainly on burnt coffee... ... Not a ‘naked’ Glenfiddich, that’s for sure, but I guess it’s sexy enough for the most dedicated sherry freaks. As for the other malt heads, maybe they’d better wait for the Playboy Germany 'Play Malt 1974' edition - I can't wait to see the bottle and the label ;-) 87 points .
