Neat. Sample. I adored Series 2, 3, 4 but the Dickel in this one has me skeptical at the price. I am hit and miss on Dickel, love or hate it pending certain qualities. Super excited to be able to sit down with a 2 ounce sample before I choose to invest. The nose is subtle but there appears to be some depth to it though. Milk chocolate and a slight apricot lead. Royal vanilla icing. Leather, clove and cinnamon. Dark cherry. Salted caramel. Honey and graham crackers. You know, the graham cracker, honey and icing made me think of those old Dunkaroos as a kid. Definitely some nice layers here. May lack cohesion. It’s definitely Dickel but it’s a nice Dickel so far. Mouth feel is a bit thin but oily so it costs nicely. It’s bright and sweet immediately. Honey and green grapes. Transitions into a salted caramel / milk chocolate combo accompanied by a dark cherry. The finish is almost all the Dickel. Oak, leather, chocolate with a hint of the medicinal cherry. Getting a hint of blood orange on subsequent sips on the finish. If this was Dickel 13 year bottled in bond for $40-$50, I would be raving right now. But Discovery 5 at $135, it doesn’t fit the series or the prices. Probably the best Dickel blend I have ever tasted, but I don’t think I love it enough to justify a purchase.
