Words of Whisky (92)

:

Nose: Such a gentle, yet rich and lively malt. It’s the vibrant citrus note that stands out, with the loveliest of orange zest, but also some watermelon, apple skin and notes of peach and nectarine. Finally some grapefruit. Then there’s touches of sweet pastry, buttery Chardonnay and maybe even some charred oak in the background.
Taste: Creamy, buttery, fruity and a gentle spiciness. Elegant fruits like nectarines, ripe apples and apricots but also candied almonds. Even a touch of smoke, although very much hidden and in the background. Finally some Port-stewed pears, cinnamon, cloves and oranges.
Finish: Lingering fruits and soft spices. Medium in length.

Score: 92

As elegant a nose as you’ll probably ever encounter on a single malt, with a more vibrant and present palate. The mixture between bourbon and sherry casks is spot on. This is a style of whisky that currently just isn’t made.
