Jan 2020. Clear medium light gold. Small tulip. Aromatic sweet floral, ripen kernel fruit, nuts, almonds, chestnuts, beacon, and wax in nose. Vanilla, tropical fruit, and sweet light maltose in palate. Good ex bourbon malt whisky. Classic like a textbook.

Powerful sherry nose with lots of sweeten figs, roasted dark plum, raisins, sweeten prune, sandalwood incense, old leather, old furniture and nutmeg in nose. Powerful sweet spicy, roasted dark plum pu erh tea, wood tannin, sweeten wild berries, old leather, clove and gran masala in palate. Sophisticated well matured masterpiece. A little bit too oaky woody style but I enjoy a lot. One of the best heavy weight sherry malt.

Dec 2019. Clear medium gold. Small tulip. Medium old furniture, old leather, dried spicy, and a little dried nuts in nose. Dry, medium full body with tiny smoke biscuits, leather, and gram masala in palate. Ok balance, easy strong hot finish. Typical scotch right at the original of spectrum.

Medium full body with wood spicy, dried sweet spicy, butterscotch, maple syrup, overripe pear and overripe melon in palate. Awesome sweet balance with wood spicy, like a intense and heavy straight punch on face. Sweet smooth finish. Lot’s of oak in both nose and taste but not like bourbon whiskey which contains plastic, paraffin or even petroleum nose. And definitely more intense than the Suntory Chita single grain due to the double 1st fill bourbon cask maturation.
