  1. Dottore scored this whisky 82 points Expert Senior

    The vinegar tinge in the nose unfortunately prevents a real taste experience for me, even if the mouth and finish are convincing
    • Nose
      77 77
      Very sour in the nose. White wine, but you could also go in the direction of vinegar, I find borderline. The note is unfortunately very penetrating, other fragrances have a hard time. Pineapples, bananas and shortbread cookies try their best, but they don't really work out.
    • Taste
      86 86
      Much better in the mouth, tart, subtle smoky, fine cocoa and roasted rye bread notes. Sweet, sponge fingers and spicy tart.
    • Finish
      83 83
      Dry, bitter finish. Espresso. At the very end a slightly sour, fruity note, maybe pineapple. Somewhat metallic and bubbly
