  1. Dre73 scored this whisky 85 points Connoisseur

    Nice and fresh, but it's not really in balance. Alcohol is not integrated in the whisky yet, should have stayed in the cask a little longer actually.
    • Nose

      Fresh, fruity, citrus, pear, aapples. Now and then the alcohol is pretty prominent. Sweet, vanilla. Also a little lemon detergent.
    • Taste
      84 84
      Pretty pungent, pepper. Fruity, citrus, tropical fruits. Alcohol seems to be 'loose' from the spirit, resulting in some bitterness.
    • Finish

      Still pungent, pepper. Fruity and sweet, but again some bitterness from the alcohol. Also a little tobacco in the mouth afterwards.

    Young, but delicate and nicely balanced. Good value for money in my opinion.

  9. Opeth83 scored this whisky 82 points Expert Senior

    Very fresh nose, lot of fresh juicy yellow fruit, close to the distillate not much wood impact. In the mouth it is very alcoholic but also the yellow fruitiness of the nose. It feels very young but potent. The finish is short so not very much going on just a little bitterness from the cask. 

    I don't know why they bottle this at this age, it has a lot of potential to be a great whisky maybe when it reaches the 18-21 y.

  10. wisekycourse scored this whisky 84 points Connoisseur

    Nose, freshness, green apples pears, a little wood
    2nd:
    green freshness, youth of malt, fruit on pear apples, grassy and floral return both with a puzzling youth in view of the smelling aromas.
