4th batch. Quite alcoholic on the nose, difficult to go through to nose the different aromas, but at the first glance bold sweet with some fruitiness. The arrival is harsh, but quite tasty to tell the truth. But a disappointing finish. Clear a whisky that needs one drop of two of water. And after some drops of water, cloves and figs appear on the nose. The arrival is not so harsh now, but the alcohol is still there (maybe I should have put more water, but anyway I'm going to stop here). A lot going on on the taste, really sweet on the arrival and develops further with citric notes. The finish is now long, monotonic and warm. Pleasant whisky, not brilliant, but pleasant.
