    Nose: Some smoke, peat, honey and hints of orange . Nice. Taste: Very soft & sweet attack. Something lacking in the middle taste. Medium short aftertaste. Nose and initial mouthfeel best in this smooth but slightly unbalanced whisky.

    Sherry, sherry, sherry, with a solid whisky bite! Sherried nose with dried fruits, orange peel and more. Smooth and rounded mouthfeel, again a lot of sherry and some wood. Very nice.

    Quite dark colour. Lovely, intense but still balanced nose with lots of sherry and wood. Full bodied and concentrated in the mouth with lots of dried fruits, vanilla as well as darker elements. Long aftertaste. An elegant powerhouse!

    (Cask 1471) Very light yellow. Mild nose with light smokiness, honey and a little peat. Nice, quite rich mouthfeel, rounded, well balanced. Richer and deeper than it may appear at first sip. A few drops of water opens it up and make the individual elements more accesible. A smooth, not very loud whisky but elegant and with quite a bit of complexity. (In cask 07.02.1992, bottled 15.02.2007)

  • Nikka Coffey Malt Whisky

    Intense and very fruity nose with lots of tangerine, then smoke and pecan and brazil nuts. Pouring it in a large tulip shaped (red wine) helped very much in catching the full richness of the nose. Taste: Medium rich, nicely balanced. In the mouth initially less fruity than on the nose, but a week after opening the fruit unfolds here too, with apples and oranges. Vanilla, hints of maple suryp (but not sweet) and towards the end come spice, smoke and some iodine. Very nice whisky for the price.

    (57,3 % ABV. Bottling from year 2000 (bottle code: Front L01200 / Rear L01201)) Nose: Lovely nose of dried seaweed, tar, old boathouse, iodine, peat & leather.
