    27.09.2025 Day one of the Whisky Live 2025, which this year looks better organized/arranged inside. This is also a pretty good release, but I did expect a bit more from a Velier release. Fruty with some esters, light leather, well integrated wood, glue and faint marzipan. Medium spicy with a light bitterness on the palate.
