Tastes

Nose of caramel and some dark fruit? First sip shows a little honey and toasted almonds. A few drops of water opens and smooths it out. Very drinkable.

Bought a 50ml bottle to taste after touring the Bodega Top Pepe in Jerez out of curiosity. Very nice nose of raisins, vanilla almonds. Smooth on palate with dried figs and PX sherry. Will definitely try to find a full bottle to pack away to bring before leaving Spain since it is not available in the States.

Was surprised how light the color was in the glass. Nose of hazelnut and caramel. First sip quite harsh but a bit of peat. Lingering taste of almonds. Adding a few drops of water mellowed it out.

Light sherry on the nose color lighter than I expected. First taste a bit harsh not much taste. Glad I tasted just a wee dram &

Just opened the bottle. Color is perfect. Hits the nose with honey caramel toasted oak and a hint of vanilla. Smooth to swallow, especially after adding a few drops of water. Will become a favorite pour from now.

A perfect blend of rich fruits, honey, with a hint of peat. The Hibiki makers got this perfect.

Honey color with nose of caramel, toasted pecans. Did not pick up any smokiness. A few drops of water rounded out the smoothness. Lingering taste of mild honey. Very good sipping whiskey.

First time tasting a wee dram of this mildly peaty but somewhat sweet and hint of oak seaweed citrus. Nice long finish.

Tasted this for the first time a couple of days ago. Nice color, nose has a little port and spices. Smooth first sip with honey and cinnamon and long finish. Not much rye spice that I was able to discern. A good sipping whisky.
