Reviewed October 14, 2021 (edited October 16, 2021)"Let him who hath understanding reckon the number of the beast For it is a human number Its number is six hundred and sixty-six" -Iron Maiden- & -The Bible- Signatory Vintage, famous for their independent bottlings, on 2017 released for a german retail store, this 66.6%abv Glenlivet. Because of its curious strength, they called it "The Number of the Beast" as the famous Apocalypse Bible passage written by John. This Whisky from Hell, has been matured in first fill sherry casks, for 10 years. Witj a natural chesnut color, this is quite the dram. On the nose, it is incredible. LOTS OF COFFEE NOTES, that is the most accurate aroma here. Cherries, red fruits, maple syrup, pencils and thick vanilla. Chocolate powder, dehydrated bananas, rum, molasses, glazed pork and chilli. After the first sip, it gave me more coffee, lemon, cinnamon. Powerful, amazing. On the palate, strong, robust and incredible. Cherries, figs, dehydrated fruits, and BBQ sauce. Fried Chicken wings. A second sip gave me milk chocolate, vanilla and marshmallows. The third sip was all about chocolate fudge, snack pack. A massive aftertaste. Chilli, fireworks, gunpowder. Finish is eternal, sulphur, pepper and cinnamon. BBQ sauce. Overall, this is massive, brutal, it will condemn you to suffer if you end the bottle since only 316 where ever made, and you won't find another one. An incredible offering, a sherry bomb, it doesn't feel as you are drinking 66.6%abv, it has a feeling that resembles a 55%abv whisky. My score for it is a solid 100 over 100. SlĂ inte.
