Review #2 - Whisk(e)y #2 Nose - light, sweet, with aromas of dark chocolate and fruit. Palate - initially drastically different from the nose, being harsh, with a strong and persistent alcohol burn. The aromas started to develop slightly on the second sip, having sweet, oaky notes, slightly fruity and with some pepper tingling the tongue (maybe even a slight smokiness to it). Finish - short-medium, with a slightly bitter note. However, once it reaches the stomach it is very acidic, heavy, dry, an aspect which I do not like at all. The nose is above expectations, the taste is ok, but the acidic sensation breaks the entire experience.
