[NOSE] mango, dark grape, black berry, caramelized brown sugar, followed by an outburst of grapefruit peel spiciness. [PALATE] Powerful arrival of sweetness, fusion of caramel + toffee + dark chocolate. Vivid oakiness. Notes of vanilla, honey, grape tannin and mixed fruits on the way down the throat. [FINISH] continuum of tropical fruity tones + vanilla, which give ways to milky chocolate. Lingering and long lasting. [COMMENT] A truly awesome and unique single malt whisky, extremely flavorful, great depth of complexity. Lovely indeed. (95/100)
