Marzipan and ripe fruit welcome the smell, unfolding in a soft and warm mix of pineapple, peach, red fruits, malt biscuits, cinnamon. Slight woody and herbaceous scent in the background. Not very penetrating but pleasant. The biscuit and caressing malt is proposed on the palate, always accompanied by fruit and spices, custard, ripe pear, hazelnuts. Astringency of the wood in the background. Rather short finish, with hazelnuts, malt and wood. I admit I was biased, expecting an ethereal and colorless whisky, while instead I found myself in front of an honest, simple product, perhaps a little overpriced compared to its merits, but not despicable.
