I like it best on its own. More likely to lose from water.

Nose

86 86

Apple pie, caramel, marzipan, brown sugar, blueberries and blackberries. Hardly any alcohol.

The whisky flattens with water.

Taste

85 85

Caramel and Caramelized Nuts and Almonds. Dates. Black pepper and roasted barley.

Here, too, I find it better and more concentrated without water.

Finish

86 86

The peppery note remains. Plus Nutella on toast and coffee. Toasted aromas. Medium to long finish.

Not a classic sherry bomb by anyone's standards (there are bourbon casks in the mix after all), but a flavourful whisky with subtle sherry influences.

Nose

A touch of copper, some vanilla and a fair amount of Greek yoghurt and lemon. Pretty fresh at first, but it slowly moves into a territory of fudge, brown butter and gingerbread. Maybe some porridge too, and finally even a whiff of elderflower.

Taste

Nice oily mouthfeel, but also quite some oak spices like cloves, nutmeg and pepper. There's sweet toffee, sultana, caramel and vanilla notes, as well as a slight acidity. It's has a bread-y and malty quality too. The spices are pretty prevalent though.

Finish

Lingering notes of barley husks, brown sugar and and walnuts. Pretty long.

Simple, not too complex dram with a lot of sweetness.

Young, simple, somewhat angular, sherry-caramel. The aroma is noticeably better than the taste.

A good middle-aged man, probably, liked the aroma the most, barrels of different types were well combined.
