“#4622 23.02.2024 Relaxing at home warming up for the tasting at Whisky Watcher in Odense tomorrow. Nose Faint roasted wood, fruits, polish, light ester, vegetal. Palate Medium dry, light roasted wood, fruity, warm, polish, grass, light rubber. Finish Medium long to long, light wood, spicy, citrus, grass, light flowery. The empty glass has some light chocolate, cherry and sugarcane notes. Price to quality is pretty good in my mind.”
