Tastes

Much depth with a bold sweetness and a light spice. The port barrels did something great here as well.

Big sweet notes that led me to believe this was a blend with corn and not a single malt whisky. After all, it comes from oloroso and port barrels. Though not fantastic whisky, it's interesting.

Lightly fruited with a huge spiciness at the end of the sip.

Aroma notes of honey, molasses, light tangerine peel, vanilla. Taste suggests a more citric tone with a vanilla forward profile.

Exceptionally fine. Damn, it sure is. The liquid has a barely yellow tone that is more close to recent distilled malt than to aged whisky which leads me to the thought that the barrels used aren't charred nor new and provide only a small tone of wood. On top of that, the peaty smokiness is generous and revolves beautifully around the liquid. It gave me shivers on the first sip. It's brilliant. It's, indeed, exceptionally fine.
