  1. Moses scored this whisky 87 points Connoisseur

    First of all, his problem is the 43%, what a shame, ... and the oak is too bad. But if you can handle it, you get an excellent whisky for the money. Complex for lukewarm. Compared to the 15 Fairy Flag, it is more on the dry, nutty sherry side.
    • Nose
      Nose is one of the best at this age. All fruits introduce themselves and quickly mix with spicy tea notes. Tobacco and slightly sour raisins. So there is something on offer and over time it gets more and more complex.
    • Taste
      Spicy for Christmas with fresh coffee and cloves, it is very malty on the go. Here the oak is dominant. Too bad. But with tobacco, cinnamon and good sherry notes, he does his job masterfully. Still above standard. He deserves respect.
    • Finish
      Medium to long but rather on the dry side, it remains spicy and fruity on the palate at the same time. Now add orange peel and light apple. Already very tasty. But not top league.
