Tasting Notes

Colour

deep gold

air Nose

very interesting, the fresh oak shows as much as in many bourbons, for example. There’s a feeling of sawdust, vanilla, ginger liqueur, melon liqueur, tiny wee touches of cologne (although it’s no cologny whisky!) and then juniper (or rather genever) and more and more crème de menthe. This does not feel very natural but I won’t deny it’s very sexy whisky so far. With water: even more of all that. A very unScotch Scotch

restaurant Palate

oh yes, definitely bourbon. Very thick and oily, sweet and spicy at the same time, with plenty of fresh oak (feeling of pencil shavings), ginger/speculoos, big vanilla, big coconut, not so big bananas and big maple syrup. Very rich whisky and yet it remains kind of light. Quite an achievement. With water: sweeeeeet and syrupyyyyyyy…

timer Finish

long, honeyed and extremely liqueury
