  1. LeChiffre scored this whisky 89 points Connoisseur

    A great experience this old malt. Due to the peppery-spicy oak as a counterpoint to the fruity sweetness, the malt does not lack power despite the 43%. Unfortunately, the taste and finish is a little less than the wonderful, intense, fruity nose, but still very tasty.
    • Nose
      92 92
      wow what an intense sweet fruit basket with a tropical touch; yellow fruits; Banana; ripe apple; Mango; Honeydew melon; delicate vanilla; beautiful spicy oak notes lie behind it
      - wonderfully intense fruity nose
    • Taste
      88 88
      sweet start; yellow fruits; Pears; Apples; some passion fruit; significantly less intense and fruity than on the nose; then the oak becomes increasingly peppery and spicy and emphatically in the foreground
    • Finish
      88 88
      peppery-spicy; tender fruit; tart oak aromas; easily becoming dusty dry
