It is absolutely dissapointing. This is a $1.000 dollar bottle. And i would not even pay $40 for it. Bottled at 40%abv, Nas, blended malt scotch whisky... tawny color, most certainly colored. You know i give high scores to good whiskies, this is not the case. On the nose it wasn't that bad, Honey, Hazelnut, red apples, Cinnamon, Maple syrup, Lemom after a while. Reminds me a little of japanese whiskies.Artificial aroma, Like sugar caramelized in excess. On the palate starts Hot and bitter. After 2 seconds some brown dry chocolate cake appears. Burning sensation comes from a spice. Definitively liquorice in an unpleasant way. Finish is mouth drying, a little bitter. Aftertaste with a simple cheap pepper. Overall i give it a very fair 62 over 100. For a thousand bucks.... man, what can i tell you....
