Nose - This whisky makes a strong impression with a strong and unique nose. Opening with notes of brown sugar, vanilla dates and anise before leading into the wonderful smells that remind me of a traditional bakery. Palate - Even without water, this whisky is pleasant to drink. The mouthfeel is light and buttery. Sweet, sour and spicy. Finish - The long and delicous finish reminds me of white chocolate, mint tea, gingerbread, frangipane, freshly ground coffee and salted toffee. I am glad that I got hold of a sample of this unique whisky. Despite the €100,- price tag per bottle, I am considering buying one. "Excellent" : 4.25 stars | Really quite exceptional.
