Tasting Notes by Max

I do enjoy this whisky very much these hot days. I've got quite some bottles open, but seem to favor this one every time I feel like having a dram or two.

It's very aromatic, smooth and pleasant whisky. It's body is a bit watery and sweet. Not the best out there. But the finish is just magnificent for my taste. Almost bourbonish, spicy. A welcome member of my cabinet)

Nose: candy, aromatic, red apple, sherry Body: a bit watery and sweet Finish: vanilla, wax, honey, sultanas
