  1. dRambo scored this whisky 86 points Connoisseur

    Without water 87 - with max 85 - makes 86, you can drink it quite well without water - I think you should - I wouldn't buy it anyway
    • Nose
      88 88
      Walnut tree leaves, tree of life, nut flour, cherry jam, raspberry pulp, polished wood, furniture polish

      a drop of water makes it discreetly fruity but also more acidic, red sparkling wine, red and white currants - all in all, water does not get it so well in the nose - it loses volume
    • Taste
      86 86
      fruity - dark red - red groats, grated dark chocolate with 85% ++ cocoa, a hint of balsamic

      On the palate, water brings nut and chocolate to the front - there is a juniper note that is on the border to the metallic / oily bad note and that becomes clearer with every sip and turns into a negative for me
    • Finish
      84 84
      quite dry - dark cinnamon chocolate - fresh herbaceous astringent green walnut shell - still chocolatey but unfortunately also somewhat metallic
