  1. Dram Dracula scored this whisky 92 points Connoisseur

    The first of the new Connoiseur's Choice Cask Strength series I've tried. Not a bad start for me. Very smart series for GM, with good looking bottles and labels.
    • Nose
      92 92
      Solid nose. Some good quality sherry cask right here, man. Clean, and well-integrated. Dried coffee and dark chocolate.
    • Taste
      92 92
      Yes, the sherry is VERY well-integrated. Bright and expressive, and definitely on the elegant side when it comes to heavy sherry. No point in listing all the flavors found in sherry. Just know that this is done well. If there is one complaint, this is on the drier side.
    • Finish
      91 91
      Good length. A bit dry.

      On my second time tasting this, it is not dry at all... wonderful. 91 -> 92 points. What a lovely dram! Perfect ABV.
