Nikka Whisky From the Barrel

Would recommend leaving your dram to air for about 10 minutes before nosing otherwise the alcohol is overwhelming. Whisky starts out sweet and full bodied, but eventually evolves into a saltier, spicier, and drier finish. NOSE: Molasses, dried cherries, plums, grapefruit, seaweed, gentle peat PALATE: Brown sugar, caramel, plums, salt and pepper FINISH: Oranges, lemon peel, tannins, Malbec Rating: 84/100 Grade: B Good - not a "must", but a nice-to-have.

This pour has a Speyside familiarity on the nose with citrus and dried fruit notes. Orange, honey and almonds blend on the tongue with a salty cinnamon spice finish. Delightful!

Peat, soft, fruity, lingering finish. Delicious.

Peaty yet complex and smooth. Reminds me a lot of some scotches.

Nose: smoke, tobacco, a hint of brown sugar Palate: some mild heat on the tongue, fruity...maybe orange? Finish: spicy, yet something is sweet

Cask strength. Smooth but needs few drops of water to be enjoyed fully. Coffee notes.

Caramelo tostado, toques de picante y muy largo en boca, muchos sabores distintos que con agua se abren. Recomendado!!
