“Despite dilution high level!”

“In the nose full DOK aroma. In the mouth a bit of disillusionment, in my eyes too strongly diluted. But especially with the DOK one is just used to full hut of ABV. As an entry into the DOK world but recommendable, only a bit expensive for it.”

“Tasted on the Whisky and Rum festival 2022. IJmuiden. www.zeewijck.nl Pretty funky Hampden. Def above LROK. Around <>H. Nose more funky than the taste. Might have sat in a Scotch cask. Just a whiff of peat present. A bit atypical for Hampden. Great balance between funk/fruit/wood and spices.”
