  2. Kumachan scored this whisky 90 points Expert Senior

    A great whisky because of its taste, balanced quality and complexity, its price is perfect for this quality. A whisky that will make fans and professionals happy. If it had to be given a subjective rating, it would be a 90.
    • Nose
      Gold dress, many tears, regular, fine and fast. It is concentrated on the nose, heady, a marinade of blackcurrant and cherry blossoms, orange blossom, acacia honey. A sweet and surprising sensation of red fruits, acid raspberry. Violet and anise, but also white flesh fruit like pear.Mineral and peppery, a little salty side.
    • Taste
      The palate is sweet and concentrated on pear, acacia honey and white flowers, violet and a lactic impression of pear yoghurt. It's tender, sweet and salty, camphor, cocoa, wet rock and zan on the finish.
    • Finish
      The finish is moderately long, earthy and mineral.

    I´m a sucker for these simple, straightforward clynelishes and could have them every day.
    don´ get me wrong, this is not a big whisky. it only satisfies my personal taste perfectly.
    89/100
    • Nose
      I think I could review this by heart, cause I have had so much of that stuff.
      lemons, apples , pears, beeswax, wet beach sand, whiffs of smoke. light malt and caramel, slightly gingery
    • Taste
      wonderful: coastal and mineral, just the right amount of wax and honey, very little fudge and a hint of a hint of peat smoke. vanilla.
    • Finish
      medium, clean,

    Dress: caramel Nose: not very expressive and difficult to decipher. It's round and fruity, some notes a little buttered and a background more mineral. Palate: creamy and warm, a greedy texture with fruit. Final: light smoke, a little drier.
    Comment: a whisky quite complex and difficult to access when we start.
