Tastes

Don’t get me wrong, I could drink this everyday thanks to the soft voluminous texture and the amazing dark fruit palate. But there is a weird hint of soap at the end of the finish. 22-25-21-22=90

Overall light and friendly. Almost refreshing but never remotely powerful. 22-22-21-21=86

Fine round nose (milk chocolate) and a palate that sort of lives up to the promise. The finish is a weak spot. It might be spicy, and sort of big, but too soon turns briny and furry. Overall it seems out of balance. (Batch 02) 22-22-21-19=84

Oaky sweet nose with a palate in the same powerful league. Long spicy finish. In other words, a souped-up version of the classic No. 7 but more dry - and also more out of balance. 23-22-21-21=87

23-23-22-23=91 Meaty stuff. Bourbon palate and long rye finish.

Gorgeous nose (milk chocolate) and a very complex and great palate. The red berries finish is spicy and dry with the latter taking too much control. 23-23-22-21=89
