Strange finish that does not give me Barbados wibes at all. Maybe it is because of the cask finish or unexpected associations, but not my case at all . Rather disappointing :-( I just don’t understand why you would ruin a good distillatie like this
From the nose to the finish dominate very smoky whiskey notes!A pure rum flavor is hard to define!Overall, however, who likes smoky whiskey, a pleasant rum that spreads creamy soft in the mouth!In the finish join still slightly grassy flavors added
It must have a whisky finish! Unfortunately, it's not my cup of tea.
Would have tasted blind on a light Lowland whiskey tipped. With a few dashes of herbal lemonade and cold mint tea. No complexity monster, but definitely very idiosyncratic. Is not an Agricole by definition, but goes in this direction.
