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

86 86

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

84 84

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.

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.

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.
