Words of Whisky (87)

;

Nose: Plenty of nougat and marzipan, quickly followed by vanilla pods and a whisper of mint, but also butterscotch, pine resin and rye bread. Finally a touch of cigar boxes and sandalwood. It’s rich alright.
Taste: A little less rounded and more aggressive than the nose, with notes of strong coffee, but also cinnamon and dark chocolate, as well as allspice and pepper. There’s also some aniseed, a whiff of charred oak and some liquorice root.
Finish: Cloves, a pinch of salt and even a slight medicinal note. Finally a touch of After Eights and a lingering sweetness.

CONCLUSION
My main frame of reference still is Scotch single malt, but with all these world whiskies I have to keep recalibrating. This is very different from what is out there, and it swims really well. Actually, I would say adding water simply makes it better. The APEX Dead Sea turns out to be a nice renewed acquaintance with Milk & Honey.
